IATSE 470 has instituted a Hiring Hall to place workers in jobs. All workers who wish to work with IA 470 must become members of the Hiring Hall, and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Hiring Hall Procedures. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A MEMBER OF IATSE 470 TO BE A MEMBER OF THE HIRING HALL! You DO have to be a member of the Hiring Hall to receive work through the Hiring Hall.
If you are interested in working through the Hiring Hall, please review the Hiring Hall Procedures. Then, if you wish to apply, you must print, fill out, and return the Hiring Hall Agreement to the address indicated on the form.
PLEASE BE AWARE that applying to the Hiring Hall is NO GUARANTEE of receiving work! There are MANY members of the Hiring Hall, and work is assigned according the Procedures outlined in the document. Again, see the Hiring Hall Procedures document for details. Also be aware that the terms of the Worker Conduct Policy applies to ALL workers who apply to the Hiring Hall.
Alliance, Inc. is the payroll corporation used by IA 470 to see that workers are paid quickly and efficiently. Go to their web-page at www.alliancepayroll.org to download and print out Alliance Invoices, workcall sheets, new employee forms, or Injury Report forms for use by members serving as job stewards. Alliance, Inc. can use Direct Deposit to your bank account so that paychecks may be more quickly expedited. The appropriate forms are available at the Alliance Website. Check it out!
