What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Indiana Laborers District Council (ILDC), a LiUNA-affiliated council representing ten local unions across the state, jointly administers Welfare, Pension, Training, and Central Laborers Annuity trust funds for its members. A contractor who signs the council's collective bargaining agreement to hire union laborers agrees to make regular monthly contributions to these funds for every hour worked.
The fringe-benefits bond backs that promise. It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal) as the signatory contractor, the surety carrier, and the ILDC trust funds as the obligee. If a signatory contractor falls behind on contributions owed under the agreement, the trust funds can make a claim against the bond up to its $30,000 limit.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the life of your signatory status, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out to keep your $30,000 filing continuous.
