Variety – Challenge – Team – Satisfaction – Rewarding

These are the words that characterise a pipelining lifestyle.

Pipeline careers offer rewarding opportunities, accompanied by choice and flexibility. Employers and labour leaders are committed to sustaining this essential Canadian workforce of “pipeliners.”

CAREER AWARENESS

The Association advocates for unionized pipeline construction industry with the government through labour relations, policy review, pipeline standard codes and more. The PLCAC continues to foster a Canadian-based workforce with specialized technical, trade and craft skills for pipeline construction and maintenance.
