Illinois United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers, Local No. 69 Wage and Fringe Benefits Bond
Overview
Roofing contractors in Illinois who employ union workers under Local No. 69 are required to carry this Wage and Fringe Benefits Bond as a condition of their labor agreement. It guarantees that covered employees receive every dollar of wages and fringe benefits they are owed under the collective bargaining agreement. If a contractor fails to pay, the bond provides a financial remedy to the union and its members. Bond Titan makes it fast and simple to get this bond in place so you can stay compliant and keep working.
Who Needs This Bond?
Any roofing contractor, waterproofing company, or allied trades employer who has signed a collective bargaining agreement with the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers, Local No. 69 must carry this bond. That includes established roofing businesses expanding their union workforce, new signatory contractors entering their first CBA with Local No. 69, and subcontractors brought onto a project under a union agreement. If your crew includes members of Local No. 69 and you are signatory to their agreement, this bond is required of you.
What is this Bond For?
This bond protects Local No. 69 members by ensuring their employer meets every wage and fringe benefit obligation spelled out in the collective bargaining agreement. Fringe benefits typically include contributions to health and welfare funds, pension funds, and apprenticeship programs negotiated into the CBA. If a covered contractor falls behind on wages or stops making required fund contributions, the union can make a claim against this bond to recover what members are owed. It is a financial backstop that keeps the union's protections meaningful.
When is it Required?
Before you can begin dispatching Local No. 69 workers or executing work under a union agreement, the bond must already be in place. The requirement is triggered at the point of becoming a signatory contractor — the union will typically require proof of this bond before labor is dispatched to your jobs. Delays in bonding mean delays in getting your workforce to the jobsite. Buying this bond now keeps your project timeline intact.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies statewide in Illinois wherever a contractor employs members covered by the Local No. 69 collective bargaining agreement. It is not a state-license bond — it is a labor agreement requirement specific to your status as a signatory employer with Local No. 69. Wherever in Illinois your roofing or waterproofing work takes you, the bond travels with your obligation.
