Being part of an ABC committee is a great way to develop new skills, forge relationships with fellow members and help to shape the Chapter’s activities.
Government and Regulatory Affairs Committee
ABC’s Government and Regulatory Affairs Committee is responsible for evaluating proposed legislation and agency regulations to determine what impact they may have on members and the construction industry as a whole. The committee works to educate members about new laws and regulations to ensure ABC members are consistently in compliance. Members of ABC’s Government and Regulatory Affairs Committee act as ABC’s voice at the Legislature to ensure that ABC is recognized as the leading resource for construction workplace issues.
EHS and Workforce Development
ABC’s Environmental Health, Safety and Workforce Development Committee will promote and advocate for a safe and healthy workplace where everyone goes home with their health to their loved ones. Support our members as good stewards of the environment, promote careers in construction while enhancing the industry’s image, deliver rigorous and relevant educational programs supporting our members in their effort to win and put work in place safely, efficiently and under budget. Foster and maintain meaningful relationships with industry and educational partners.
Member Services, Recruitment and Retention Committee
This committee provides insight and recommendations on timely industry issues for presentations at ABC’s membership meetings and events and plans. It helps execute the Chapter’s annual program to promote the Merit Shop philosophy, build chapter visibility, provide business opportunities for members and attract new members to the association. It also brainstorms new ideas and concepts for meetings and events to ensure ABC’s schedule is always improving to meet its members’ needs.
ABC PAC Trustees
The purpose of the Maine Chapter’s ABC PAC is to promote and support pro-business, free enterprise candidates running for state-level office. This is accomplished by educating ABC members on the importance of political activism and encouraging them to contribute to our Political Action Committee — ABC PAC.
