IL glaziers Local 27 wage bonds.
$1,000 flat.

When the local requires a bond to secure that obligation, ours is $1,000 flat for the $25,000 bond — the price you see is the checkout price, after a soft credit consent that never affects your score.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Glaziers Union Local No. 27 is the Chicago-area glaziers and architectural-metal-and-glass-workers local (affiliated with Painters District Council 14) with jointly administered health & welfare, pension, and related benefit trust funds. A signatory glazing employer agrees, under its collective bargaining agreement, to remit contributions to those funds on every hour a covered employee works. When the local requires a bond to secure that obligation, this is the filing.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Glaziers Union Local No. 27 or its trust funds (the obligee), with the covered workers' benefit accounts as the protected interest. If a signatory employer falls behind on required wage, welfare, or pension contributions, the local can make a claim against the bond to recover what is owed.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. This is a private, contractual requirement set by the local and its trust agreement, not an Illinois statute or ordinance, so confirm the exact figure and filing address with the local's business office before applying — we'll issue whichever amount it specifies.
