ECA & the JIB

The ECA is committed, to working in partnership with Unite the Union, through the Joint Industry Board for the Electrical Contracting Industry (JIB) to ensure the electrical contracting industry develops the most effective industrial relations and safety standards and practices in the electrotechnical sector.

The main way of achieving this objective by the ECA and Unite the Union is to negotiate and agree wages and main terms and conditions of employment for electrotechnical employees in our sector.
