Across the nation, LIUNA members have helped lay down new highways, build spectacular bridges, dig tunnels and subways, build new plants, factories, dams and power plants, and erect new schools, churches, hospitals and houses.

But today, "laborer" means much more than construction worker. The union's 800,000 members in more than 650 locals work in a wide variety of fields such as state, local and federal government service, as well as health care, mail handling, custodial services, shipbuilding, food service, and hazardous waste removal (including asbestos and lead).
