A Climate Resilient IAM
Strengthening IAM programs to be resilient to the impacts of climate change can prepare the union for new growth opportunities, protect members from job disruptions, and model labor leadership on decarbonization. The union can work to:
● Expand Manufacturing, and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Training and Apprenticeship Programs
● Develop Climate Training Programs at the William W. Winpisinger Center
● Invest Further in the IAM Disaster Relief Fund
● Decarbonize the IAM’s Physical Infrastructure
● Lead on Winning and Enforcing the OSHA Heat Standard Rule
● Deepen Relationships and Share Information with International Counterparts
● Prioritize Equity, Diversity and Climate Justice in the Energy Transition
● Protect IAM Members in Threatened Industries
