IBEW Locals Approve Constitutional Changes on Staff Compensation

December 21, 2009

In a referendum vote conducted between October 2 and December 1, 2009, IBEW locals approved a revised amendment to the Brotherhood’s constitution that alters the compensation formula for International officers, assistants, directors and representatives so that they will now resume making contributions to the pension plan.

Members who wish to review the text of the language should contact their local union.

The International Secretary-Treasurer received responses from 415 locals out of 894 eligible to vote, and the final tally was 357 locals in favor and 58 against. All locals had one vote in the process in accordance with Article XXVII, Section 1(a) of the IBEW Constitution.
