WHAT WE DO.
We build
Highways and bridges, waterways and dams, hospitals, schools and government institutions. We make streets, communities, cities and provinces work. From low rise to high rise construction, pouring concrete to landscaping homes, we literally and figuratively build Canada.
Across Canada LiUNA represents working men and women in a wide range of industries.
Building Construction
LiUNA members build office towers, apartment buildings, schools, sports facilities, shopping malls, parking garages, factories and many other types of buildings, including houses.
Heavy Construction and Highway Construction
LiUNA members build roadways, bridges, dams, power plants and other major construction projects.
Manufacturing & Commerce
Although LiUNA began in 1903 as a construction union, our members now work in many types of factories and processing plants. We also work in stores, offices, hotels, restaurants and offices.
Public Sector
Government-funded services is one of the fastest-growing areas of LiUNA membership, from hospitals and nursing homes to school boards, municipal streets and parks departments, waste management and recreation, to name just a few.
