The Lurie Labor-Management Cooperation Prize went to the Wisconsin Building Trades and Wisconsin’s Major Utilities.  Four unions and four companies agreed to a first of its kind pledge to use unionized labor in the construction of hundreds of renewable and green energy investments over the next decade. The new agreement forgoes the individual arguments, provided critical training, allows for competitive labor standards, including standardized local wages and benefits.
