Our successful history of <br /> managing our workforce illustrates that we are able to scale up or down, depending on labor needs <br /> for any given project.When it comes to large-scale electrical projects,Cupertino Electric is the most <br /> skilled at managing a large workforce for multiple site project clients such as the County of <br /> Alameda. <br /> Union Labor Experience <br /> Since its founding in 1954, Cupertino Electric has been an International Brotherhood of Electrical <br /> Workers(IBEW)-affiliated contractor.As one of the largest Design Build electrical contractors in the <br /> United States,Cupertino Electric has employed as many as 3,000 IBEW electricians at anyone time. <br /> Cupertino Electric has vast experience at the local, regional and national level of the IBEW. <br /> Cupertino Electric has constructed projects across North America utilizing IBEW labor. In fact, the <br /> company typically has more than 200 projects under construction in California and dozens under <br /> construction in other states across the United States. <br /> Union Hiring Process <br /> At Cupertino Electric, we believe people are our greatest asset. Hiring good employees is the first <br /> step, and as an IBEW-affiliated contractor, Cupertino Electric staffs projects with highly skilled and <br /> trained manpower. When the company needs to increase its workforce for a particular project, <br /> Cupertino Electric contacts the IBEW local and puts in a "job call" for as many applicants as the <br /> project will require. However, this does not mean that every union electrician who answers an <br /> IBEW job call will be put to work. <br /> All union inside wiremen are required to undergo an extensive interview process with Cupertino <br /> Electric's regional superintendents. The local IBEW dispatch hall is aware of our interview process <br /> and field performance expectations. The interview is specifically designed to uncover past <br /> experiences with Cupertino Electric and/or other local contractors. Cupertino Electric's refined <br /> process helps ensure our recruitment yields only best-fit candidates. We seek field employees who <br /> share our corporate outlook, work ethics and safety awareness, along wi,th our planning and <br /> installation monitoring processes. Cupertino Electric encourages growth within our workforce, <br /> recognizing potential candidates for promotion who show specific supervision, safety and/or <br /> technical acumen. <br /> Exhibit F Page 1 <br />
