In this weeks episode 10 of Fitter Talk, host Curtis Ohlde goes International to talk with Paddy Kavanagh the General Secretary for the Connect Trade Union which joined the United Association in 2015. Paddy talks about their 40,000 skilled crafts women and men that the Trade Union represents, Density (Market Share) of union labor in Ireland along with some of the challenges. In addition Paddy Shares a little history about Irelands Independence and the roll the Trade Union played. As well as having the first woman to start and run the Trade Union.
Many in the States I believe don't understand Connect Trade Union and may refer to them as Engineers. Which was the first craft signed on. Currently Connect Trade represents 21/25 skilled crafts for labor in Ireland. In addition Connect Trade Union is a member of the IBEW and Paddy shares the transition to global markets, work and need for skilled craft workers. Connect Trade Union plans to be in Ann Arbor for the 2024 ITP and bring apprentices to compete in the competition. For more information about Connect Trade Union go to https://connectunion.ie/.
