Being a member of a union means being a member of a community. CLAC is committed to making a positive difference in the communities where our members live and work. We support a number of local causes, nationwide initiatives, and international organizations that strengthen workers, families, and communities. Here are just some of the organizations we partner with.
CLAC sponsors Skills Canada, an organization that encourages and supports “a coordinated Canadian approach to promoting skilled trades and technologies to youth.” We also attend and sponsor the Skills events in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and the national event.
CLAC has partnered with Women Building Futures (WBF), the nation’s premier trades training facility for women and the first of its kind in Canada. WBF offers women pre-trades competency-based training in welding, steamfitting/pipefitting, ironworking, plumbing, sheet metal, carpentry, scaffolding, electrical, heavy equipment operator, and more at their training centre in Edmonton.
CLAC is proud to be a national sponsor of Threads of Life, a Canadian registered charity committed to supporting families affected by workplace tragedies, including fatalities, life-altering injuries, and occupational diseases. Through a network of family members and corporate partners, Threads of Life fosters healing and promotes awareness with the shared belief that traumatic workplace injuries, diseases, and deaths are preventable. Together, we are working to build a culture of safety and care in workplaces across Canada.
CAREERS is a unique, industry-led public/private not-for-profit foundation established in 1997. It brings together industry, schools, government, and communities to guide youth into successful career paths. CAREERS, together with CLAC, is motivating students in Alberta by making the workplace an extension of the classroom, preparing them for a future where they are in-demand!
Help make a difference in the lives of struggling workers and their families around the globe and in Canada through the CLAC Foundation.
