Thank you to Paul Diaz Union Organizer from IW Local 29 in Portland, Oregon and founder/ host of Chasing the Hook Podcast for taking the time to sit with the ULA Network. Paul shared his background history and experience as an Organizer, how he started in the profession, and what led him to start Chasing the Hook Podcast.
We discussed EAP programs (employee assistance programs) and the benefits of being a Union Ironworker.
