We are the United Steelworkers, North America’s largest industrial union. We’re 1.2 million members and retirees strong in the United States, Canada and the Caribbean. We proudly represent men and women who work in nearly every industry there is.
USW Local 5000 members are highly skilled mariners working in deck, engine, and galley departments upon the Great Lakes; and highly specialized service providers to the steel industry. We represent unlicensed mariners at Central Marine Logistics, Interlake Steamship Company, and Key Lakes, Inc; and represent the servicemen and women at Sisco.
United Steelworkers Local 5000 represents unlicensed crewmembers aboard Great Lakes cargo ships and one unit on shore. Our workers are hired by the individual companies rather than through the union itself. Working aboard a great lakes ships carries several special requirements, and is described as more of a lifestyle than a career.
