Welcome to USW 9445 Website! - Located in Tarentum Pennsylvania our local has been servicing our members and the local communities they live in for over 25 years.

We also represent workers in the scrap metal recycling, custom ladder and platform products, pressure vessel and electric boiler fabrication industries.
We regret to inform our members of the loss of Courtney Smith. Our prayers and thoughts go out to her family and loved ones. Courtney will be missed dearly.
Please take our new union survey, your participation is very important.
It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts, that we inform our members of the death of our USW President Tom Conway. Tom Conway was a prominent figure in the labor movement, and during his decades as a Union Leader he had a substantial influence to so many great individuals.
