The Southern Sierras Chapter of the National Electrical Contractors Association represents signatory electrical contractors that have Collective Bargaining Agreements ("C.B.A.'s") with The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Unions 440 and 477. Locally our members employ approximately 1000 workers who perform over 1 million man hours of work per year. The members and their employees are local residents that support their communities and strive every day to make the Inland Empire a better place to live.

Nationwide, NECA is the voice of the $100 billion electrical industry responsible for lighting, power, and communication systems in buildings and communities across the United States. NECA advances the electrical contracting industry through advocacy, education, research, and standards development.

NECA is dedicated to enhancing the industry through continuing education, labor relations, current information and promotional activities. It is the voice of the electrical contracting industry, working to promote higher standards, quality workmanship and training for a skilled workforce.

At all levels, NECA provides non-labor relations type services to contractors, including detailed publications and workshops on virtually every aspect of the electrical construction industry. We develop new publications - some of them electronic - and new training events in response to the latest industry trends and member needs.

Working for a brighter future for the industry, NECA is a co-sponsor of the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (NJATC) for the electrical industry, which trains more than 25,000 electrical apprentices and is the sole source of significant in-service training for journeyman electricians.
