JOINT ABC INDUSTRIAL CONTACTORS COUNCIL STEERING COMMITTEE AND GBRIA BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors of GBRIA recognize the importance of addressing strategic issues with the leaders of our merit shop contractor community. Direct communication with the Associated Builders and Contractors Industrial Contractors Council Steering Committee provides an avenue for important issues helping both industry and the contractor community improve efficiencies.

The joint committee identified five top issues to work on. These issues include:

  1. Workforce Development
  2. Cost Reduction
  3. Environment
  4. Legislative
  5. Industry Image

The committee has focused its efforts on Workforce Development over the last several years. Their efforts have yielded a common definition for a certified craftsperson, study and development of a new model to fund craft training in our area (still in development), Non-English Speaking workers guidelines and more

Committee meetings are held at the GBRIA office from 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. once each quarter.
