A job call is an official request made by a union-signatory contractor to the local union hall for a specific number of qualified workers. When a utility company or electrical contractor wins a bid for a project—such as power line maintenance, substation construction, or telecommunications upgrades—they do not hire open-market labor. Instead, they contact IBEW Local 396 to fill those slots.
While many locals use a recorded "Job Line," IBEW 396 primary contact for dispatch and organizing questions is: Main Office: 702-457-3011. office@ibew396.org. IBEW Local 396 3. Public Job Announcements ibew 396 job calls
