What it is and who needs it.
What the welfare fund bond actually guarantees
A union wage-and-welfare bond is a condition of the Collective Bargaining Agreement a roofing contractor signs with the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers, and Allied Workers Local No. 2, based in the St. Louis metro. It is a private contractual requirement between the employer and the union, not a Missouri statute, so no Missouri code section is cited here.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the signatory contractor, the principal), the surety carrier, and Local 2's Welfare Fund (the obligee), with covered union members as the protected parties. If a signatory contractor fails to pay the wages or welfare-fund contributions the agreement requires for covered members' hours, the Welfare Fund can recover against the bond, up to $50,000.
It is not insurance for the contractor — if the surety pays a claim, the contractor repays the surety. The bond must stay current for as long as the contractor remains signatory, so we track the term and notify you ahead of renewal.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $50,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
