Allied Workers Local #48

MISSION

Local Union #48 roots were established in 1933 when several asbestos workers from the Atlanta Georgia area petitioned the International Association of Heat & Frost Insulators and Asbestos Workers to put a Local Union Charter in Atlanta. This charter opened the door for Insulators & Asbestos Workers from across Georgia to join an organization that help establish good wages and benefits even in a depression era.

  • Started in 1933

From the time our charter was established, the members of Local #48 have set a high standard in the Mechanical Insulation field by working with the other crafts from the Construction & Building Trades in building some of the largest and most recognized structures in the Atlanta & North Georgia area. During the early years of our organization many of our members lost their lives and some of their family to the dreaded diseases caused by asbestos exposure. As more and more people became aware of the diseases associated with this material our own members fought long and hard to help end the production of this type insulation and establish laws that governed its use.
