Reciprocity / Traveling Work
As a traveling worker, whether you are a member of the Central Laborers’ Funds or a worker traveling in from elsewhere, there are steps you need to take to ensure your hours/employer contributions are transferred back to your home fund(s). In order for the transfer to happen, the other fund(s) must have a reciprical transfer agreement in place with the Central Laborers’ Funds. Here is a list of Funds which participate in transfer reciprocal agreements. Instructions for members and non-members are outlined below; click a title to expand the content.
NOTE: If you transfer locals, please contact the Central Laborers’ Funds to stop any active reciprocal transfers. You will need to submit your request in writing or by filling out the Stop Transfer Authorization Form found in our Forms Gallery and sending it to the Central Laborers’ office.
