Business Manager Warren Faust of SMART Sheet Metal Local 44 gave United States Senator Bob Casey a demonstration on the SMART, Label It, Scan It, Report It App during a recent visit to the Local 44 union hall in Scranton, PA. Senator Casey inquired on the difference between the yellow and blue label and was impressed by the app and how it affords our members a tool to insure our products are built by our Brother and Sister members as well as wage equalized.
Thanks to Marx Sheet Metal for fabricating the yellow labeled items as well as Arrow United for fabricating the blue labeled items. After the demonstration a round table discussion was held on how trade deals impact labor unions and American jobs / workers. SMART Local 44 hosted this event with various labor unions and their representatives participating.
