What is this bond?

This surety bond is a financial guarantee used in conjunction with a collective bargaining agreement for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local No. 6. It guarantees that electrical contractors will make timely and accurate contributions to the union's fringe benefit funds, such as health, welfare, and pension plans. If the employer defaults on these payments, the bond compensates the related trust funds for the unpaid benefits.

Who needs it?

Electrical contractors operating in California who hire union workers affiliated with IBEW Local No. 6 typically need this bond. It applies to signatory employers who have entered into a collective bargaining agreement with the union. Because specific requirements vary, employers should verify their exact bonding obligations directly with the union or the trust fund administration.

Why is it required?

The union and its associated trust funds require this bond to protect their members' financial interests, healthcare coverage, and retirement security. It provides the obligee with a guaranteed source of funds if an employer goes out of business or fails to remit the required benefit contributions. This ensures that union members receive their earned benefits regardless of the employer's financial situation.

  • ⚠Allowing the bond to lapse by delaying the renewal process, which can lead to union penalties.
