Welcome to the official website for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), Local 595! Our website was created to help communicate with our members and their families, as well as non-members and others interested in our union and our work in the East Bay.

      Local 595 spans three counties - Alameda, Calaveras and San Joaquin. Our members perform electrical installations in residential, commercial and industrial construction work, as well as perform maintenance, lighting, motor shop, sound and communications work.

      The pioneers that laid the foundations for our union left a legacy that we strive to honor and continue to build upon. We have demonstrated our commitment to future generations through our apprenticeship and training programs, good wages, family medical coverage, and excellent retirement programs. Our work with our signatory contractors helps ensure the success of our industry, and we are proud of our 100 year history.

    On behalf of the Officers and Staff of IBEW Local 595, I encourage all members to take an active role in the union. Visit this site for information and updates, and email your thoughts and suggestions. Most of all, take pride in your work, and work safe every day.
