The black and gold might not have been in action this weekend, but there was a prideful crowd at Acrisure Stadium… for the annual Pittsburgh Regional Building Trades Council Christmas Party. Local 449 representatives got into the holiday spirit Friday afternoon in the Champions Club with live music, food, beverages and giveaways. The celebration was a great way for all trades to show solidarity and mingle with other union Trades.
The Pittsburgh Regional Building Trades Council was created to support the various union craft sectors within the western Pennsylvania region. It represents nineteen different craft sectors and over thirty-three local unions, with the belief that every worker deserves a fair wage and safe working conditions. The Pittsburgh Regional Building Trades Council’s purpose is to protect and further these basic rights, as well as continue to create family sustainable jobs and a middle class living in Pennsylvania.
