ORCCA is a council of associations who are designated bargaining agencies in the residential sector of the construction industry. Its membership is restricted to residential employer bargaining agencies regardless of union affiliation. ORCCA functions as a coordinating body to align association positions on a number of issues which affect the residential sector and often acts as the voice of the unionized residential construction industry. ORCCA conducts joint research in preparation for bargaining and assists in compiling longitudinal studies of wages, benefits and terms and conditions of employment to assist the parties in collective bargaining. In addition, ORCCA has submitted briefs and position papers on issues which are common to its members. ORCCA is critical to the interests of all residential sector associations of the construction industry and provides the managers of the various associations to gather and share information about issues affecting the industry. All issues are open to consideration and discussion.
