Texas Sheet Metal Workers Local Union No. 67 Fringe Benefits Bond
Overview
Hired union sheet metal workers in Texas? If you employ members of Sheet Metal Workers Local Union No. 67, you may be required to post this Fringe Benefits Bond as a condition of your collective bargaining agreement. This bond guarantees that you — the employer — will make all required contributions to the union's fringe benefit funds, including health, pension, and other benefit programs. It protects workers and their families by ensuring those contributions are actually paid.
Who Needs This Bond?
Your shop employs sheet metal workers covered by the Local Union No. 67 collective bargaining agreement — and the union requires this bond before you can put those workers on the job. Contractors and employers operating in Texas who have signed a labor agreement with Sheet Metal Workers Local Union No. 67 are the principals on this bond. If your agreement includes a bonding requirement for fringe benefit contributions, this is the bond you need. It applies regardless of company size — one crew or many.
What is this Bond For?
This bond secures your obligation to pay fringe benefit contributions owed to Sheet Metal Workers Local Union No. 67 on behalf of your covered employees. If you fail to remit required contributions — health insurance, retirement, apprenticeship, or other benefit fund payments — the union or benefit fund trustees can make a claim against this bond to recover those unpaid amounts. The bond is not a substitute for making contributions; it is the financial guarantee that you will. Workers covered by the CBA depend on these payments, and this bond backs that promise.
When is it Required?
Before your union sheet metal workers can be dispatched or remain on the job, this bond must already be in place. The collective bargaining agreement with Local Union No. 67 triggers the requirement — not a government license application. If you are a new signatory contractor, you will need to secure this bond immediately upon executing your labor agreement. Existing signatories whose bond has lapsed must reinstate coverage before continuing to employ covered workers.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies statewide in Texas wherever Sheet Metal Workers Local Union No. 67 has jurisdiction. It is a labor agreement requirement, not a state government license — the obligee is the union and its benefit fund trustees, not a state agency. Any Texas job site where you employ Local 67 members falls under the scope of this bond.
