Safety doesn't stop when you leave the jobsite. We want every member to make it home safe—and to feel safe, supported, and well when they get there.

Because a union is more than better wages and benefits. It's a brotherhood and sisterhood that looks out for one another, on the job and off.

This National Su***de Prevention Month, let's make a point to look out for each other. Check in with your brothers, sisters, family, and friends. Ask how they're really doing. Sometimes, simply knowing that someone cares can make a difference.

We work tough, demanding jobs. It's okay if you don't always feel okay. It's okay to ask for help. We encourage it.

The Laborers' Health & Safety Fund of North America and Ohio Laborers Benefits have resources for members, including access to licensed professionals who can help when life gets difficult. If you need support, reach out to the Benefits Office or your Local—we're here to help connect you with the resources you need.

Your life matters, and you don't have to face the hard times alone.

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, **call or text 988** anytime, day or night, to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. It's free and confidential.

One of the benefits our members value most is health insurance, especially after experiencing firsthand how important it can be during a medical emergency—whether for themselves or a loved one who has needed or may need medical treatment, surgery, or emergency care.

So stay informed, keep your address up to date, enroll your eligible family members, and most importantly, take advantage of this valuable benefit that you’ve earned through your hard work.

What do your union dues pay for?
Your union dues are part of your membership in LIUNA and your Local Union. They allow you to remain a member and receive the representation and protections provided by your Local and LIUNA.

Your benefits are different.
🏥 Health Insurance: Your coverage is based on the hours you work and the contributions your employer makes to the Benefits Fund.
💰 Pension: Your pension benefit is based on meeting the requirements of your pension plan.

Know the difference. Know your benefits.
