IUOE Local 101

The International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) is a progressive, diversified trade union that primarily represents operating engineers, who work as heavy equipment operators, mechanics, and surveyors in the construction industry, and stationary engineers. The operators may work in operations and maintenance in building and industrial complexes, or in the service industries. Regardless of the industry our Kansas City operators work in, it’s our privilege to represent them and create a community where we can grow in our profession together and watch out for each other.

Founded in 1896, IUOE today has approximately 400,000 members in 123 local unions throughout the United States and Canada. IUOE is the 10th largest union in the AFL-CIO. Over 100 state-of-the-art training and operating engineer apprenticeship programs ensure that IUOE members are the safest, most productive, and highly skilled craft workers.
