A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT ED THOMPSON
If you haven’t already done so please take a moment to register as a Local 776 member or retiree.
On January 10th Teamsters Local 776, in cooperation with the Teamster National Pipeline Training Fund, conducted a Pipeline Fork lift Training class for our pipeline construction members so that they could obtain their forklift certification.
Teamsters Local 776 President Ed Thompson commented” I'm glad that Michael Laborde from the Teamsters National Training fund was able to facilitate this training for our members, we have some big pipe line jobs starting in the spring, and our members will be ready to go, I want to Thank Mike and also Local 776 Employer Eckert Trucking for providing the trailer to help us create a realistic training experience."
The class lasted all day, with a classroom session in the morning, and after lunch everyone was able to demonstrate their skills by loading and unloading material onto a flat bed trailer.
