A PERFECT PARTNERSHIP
Fort Peck Tribes, LECET
and the Montana Laborers

The Fort Peck Reservation has a major problem with their drinking water.  They are rolling out a federally funded project of over $200 Million to correct it.  They needed training for tribal members who want to work on the MRI project, and the Laborers Union, with LECET's assistance, offered their help.  A Tribal Labor Agreement ensued and training took place almost immediately.  Opportunity for both entities materialized.  Learn more in our 9 minute video, A Perfect Partnership.

Laborers and Employers

     Working as a team, they research and secure projects and jobs, increase union-sector market share, advertise their services, jointly develop a workforce, and advance their shared job and market-related interests.
     NW LECET also conveys a simple message: being a Construction Craft Laborer means being devoted to quality, productivity, training, and safety.
