I have seen union and non-union that have the 30 hr osha and 40 hr haz woper training and just as many that don't on both sides. It is the owner and their reps responsibility to review the safety procedures as well as the part 29 eng survey that identifies hazards and ways to remediate those potentially dangeroous situations..

Union/non-union, it's still someone not coming home after work.

I work for a non-union contractor and we are all either 10 or 30 hour trained. Just because a company is non-union does not mean they do not know what they are doing. Here is Las Vegas several people died last year on construction projects and they were all at union projects.

I am sorry for the family of man who lost his life and give my condolence.

Agreed. It does not matter whether union or non-union. I have worked with both in the past. It is a very unfortunate tragedy and an unnecessary loss of life. My condolences to the family and coworkers.
