FREEMAN LABOR JURISDICTIONS

1 UNION JURISDICTIONS for TAMPA, florida To assist you in planning for your participation in this upcoming exposition, we are certain you will appreciate knowing in advance that union labor may be required for certain aspects of your exhibit handling. To help you understand the jurisdiction the various unions have, we ask that you read the following: EXHIBIT INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLING Currently we have an agreement with the Local 1175 Union to provide labor for display erection and dismantling. Full time employees of the exhibiting companies, however, may set their own exhibits without assistance from this local. Any labor services that may be required beyond what your regular full time employees can provide, must be rendered by the Union. Labor can be ordered in advance by returning the Display Labor form, or at showsite, at the service desk. Proof of full time employment status may be requested by the Union Steward of any personnel working in your booth. MATERIAL HANDLING Exhibitors may hand-carry their own materials into the exhibit facility. The use or rental of dollies, flat trucks and other mechanical equipment, however, is not permitted. FREEMAN will control access to the loading docks in order to provide for a safe and orderly move-in/out. Only full time employees of the exhibiting company will be allowed to hand-carry items. Unloading or reloading at the dock of any and all contracted carriers will be handled by FREEMAN. TIPPING FREEMAN requests that exhibitors do not tip our employees. They are paid at an excellent wage scale denoting a professional status, and we feel that tipping is not necessary. This applies to all employees. Any request for such should be brought to the attention of a Freeman representative at the service desk or correspondence may be directed to the attention of the General Manager at the local office address. FREEMAN LABOR JURISDICTIONS SAFETY Standing on chairs, tables, or other rental furniture is prohibited. This furniture is not engineered to support your standing weight.
