Local 181 is among 170 other Local Unions in the U.S. & Canada that collectively comprise the International Union. The IUOE represents a broad spectrum of occupations. Therefore our locals are normally divided into two categories: Hoisting & Portable and Stationary Engineers.
Hoisting & Portable locals represent members who usually work in the construction field utilizing heavy equipment such as bulldozers, cranes, scrapers, etc. The members could also work as mechanics, oliers and surveyors.
Stationary locals represent members who work in any variety of occupations including building engineers, HVAC technicians, skilled maintenance employees such as boiler technicians and a vast range of public sector occupations. These locals also represent healthcare employees, including maintenance employees, biomedical technicians, emergency medical technicians and registered nurses.
"Mixed Local" unions represent both Hoisting & Portable, and Stationary members. Local 181 is a "Mixed Local".
Local 181 proudly represents over 4,500 members. Local 181's jurisdiction includes 26 counties in Southern Indiana and with the exception of Boone, Campbell, Kenton & Pendleton all of Kentucky.
