Maintenance

Maintenance workers optimize the systems which provide a comfortable environment in which we work and live in every day.  They perform the daily maintenance on the mechanical systems to ensure a productive living and working environment.  Local 9 members are on-site 24-hours a day at many locations in Central New Jersey.

In order to perform the maintenance on many systems certain licenses are required.  Local 9 trains our mechanics to gain their stationary boiler operators license.  Our members are trained in all of the following levels:
  • Black
