Results You Can Rely On
Union contractors don’t just claim better results — the data proves it.
A landmark study by Independent Project Analysis (IPA), a globally respected consultancy, quantified the measurable value of union labor in construction projects across the United States. The results are clear.
Case Study: The Value of Union Labor in Construction Projects
Source: Independent Project Analysis (2022) – Commissioned by the Mechanical Industry Advancement Fund (MIAF)
Scope: 1,550 capital projects across multiple sectors (public and private), with comparisons of union, open-shop, and mixed labor sources.
“The combination of higher skills, better labor stability, and improved deployment translates to better cost control, more predictable schedules, and lower risk.”

Key Findings
14% Higher Labor Productivity:
Union labor outperforms open shop in both total project productivity and mechanical trades like pipefitting.
4% Lower Total Project Costs:
Despite higher hourly rates, union labor yields better value due to efficiency and fewer project delays.
40% Less Risk of Labor Shortages:
Projects using union labor are significantly less likely to experience skilled labor shortages.
33% Lower Turnover:
Union crews stay on projects longer, minimizing disruptions and onboarding costs.
Higher Skill Ratings:
Union craftworkers and foremen are rated substantially higher by project owners on skill, reliability, and supervision.
