The Ironworker Management Progressive Action Cooperative Trust (IMPACT) is a joint, labor-management, non-profit trust formed under Section 302(c) (9) of Labor-Management Relations (Taft-Hartley) Act which includes contributing Local Unions of the International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Iron Workers and their signatory contractors.
IMPACT is a labor management partnership designed to provide a forum for union iron workers and signatory contractors to address mutual concerns and encourage reasonable balanced solutions.
IMPACT develops, funds, and implements programs on a regional and national scale to address the challenges faced in the union iron working industry.
Those regions are created along Iron Worker District Council jurisdictional borders and represent general areas of North America.
The Regional Advisory Boards (RABs) serve as a forum for both Local Unions and contractors to identify and address existing problems.
