Michigan Roofers Local 149 Employee Contributions Bond
Overview
Signing a collective bargaining agreement with Roofers Local 149 in Michigan puts you on the hook for employee contributions — and the union requires a surety bond to back that obligation.

If contributions go unpaid, the bond provides a financial remedy for the fund trustees. Bond Titan makes it fast and easy to get this bond online so you can satisfy the union's requirement without delay.
Who Needs This Bond?
Roofing contractors who employ workers covered under the Roofers Local 149 collective bargaining agreement in Michigan need this bond. Any signatory employer — whether you run a small crew or a larger operation — must provide this bond as a condition of the labor agreement. It applies specifically to employers whose workers are members of, or represented by, Roofers Local 149. If the union or fund trustees have notified you that a bond is required, this is the one.
What is this Bond For?
Roofers Local 149 and its associated benefit fund trustees are the obligees — the parties protected by this bond. It exists to ensure that fringe benefit contributions, such as health, pension, and other fund payments, are remitted on behalf of covered employees as required by the collective bargaining agreement. If a signatory employer fails to make those contributions, the bond provides a source of recovery for the fund. Workers' benefits are protected even if the employer defaults.
When is it Required?
Executing or renewing a collective bargaining agreement with Roofers Local 149 is the moment this bond becomes mandatory. Fund trustees may also require it when an employer's payment history raises concern, or as a standard condition before allowing a contractor to put union members to work. You will typically need to provide proof of the bond before your workers can be dispatched or before the agreement is fully in force. Do not wait until a job is in progress — secure the bond before work begins.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies statewide in Michigan and is specific to contractors who have signed on with Roofers Local 149. It is a union-requirement bond, not a state license bond — the obligee is the Local 149 fund trustees, not a Michigan state agency. Coverage follows your obligations under the collective bargaining agreement wherever covered work is performed in the union's jurisdiction.
