Boilermakers 83 field dues bonds.
4% of the bond amount.
Boilermakers Local Lodge No. 83 — an affiliate of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers, Iron Ship Builders, Blacksmiths, Forgers and Helpers, headquartered in Kansas City with a territorial jurisdiction covering all of Kansas as well as western Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska — requires signatory employers to post a field dues and fringe benefits bond guaranteeing checked-off field dues and contributions to the local's benefit trusts. This is a private requirement of Local 83's collective bargaining agreement, not a Kansas statute. Premiums cost 4% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. Enter the amount your signatory agreement requires and your exact price appears at the application.

What it is and who needs it.
What the field dues bond actually guarantees
Boilermakers Local Lodge No. 83 is an affiliate of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers, Iron Ship Builders, Blacksmiths, Forgers and Helpers. It is headquartered in Kansas City, and its territorial jurisdiction covers all of Kansas along with western Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska. Employers who sign Local 83's collective bargaining agreement agree to check off field dues from covered wages and to remit contributions to the local's fringe benefit trusts — health & welfare, pension, annuity, and apprenticeship/training funds administered through the Boilermakers National Funds.
The field dues and fringe benefits bond backs those obligations for a signatory employer. It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Boilermakers Local Lodge No. 83 and its benefit trusts (the obligee / protected parties). If a signatory employer fails to remit dues or fund contributions, the local and its trusts can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. This is a private contractual requirement of the collective bargaining agreement, not a Kansas statute, so the amount is set per employer by the local rather than a fixed public figure. Enter the amount your signatory agreement calls for; premiums price at 4% of that amount, $100 minimum, and the application includes a credit consent that authorizes a soft pull only.
