WELCOME TO AFGE LOCAL 1916 WEBSITE
   The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) is the largest federal employee union, representing 600,000 U.S. government workers nationwide and overseas. Workers in virtually all functions of government at every federal agency are represented by AFGE.  AFGE has been affiliated with the AFL-CIO ever since its founding in 1932.
   AFGE Local 1916 consists of scientists, engineers, geologists, accountants, and many more professionals.  Our Local represents all technical, clerical, and professional non-managerial employees of three large federal research laboratories:

   All three labs are located on a 200 acre, historic research site in South Park, PA.  The research site was formerly the U.S. Bureau of Mines Bruceton Experimental Station.  It was established in 1910 to study and promote mine safety in the U.S.
   At the DOE-NETL we conduct in-house research and development (R&D) and we fund R&D through the private sector and academia.  Our R&D covers every aspect of the environmentally sound use of fossil fuels, from extracting and transporting to final conversion to electricity, chemicals and other end-use products.  NIOSH is involved in all aspects of the health and safety of miners and first responders.
   The hard working employees of Local 1916 are dedicated to making America's energy sources secure and environmentally sound for the future generations.
   To learn more about us please feel free to peruse our website and please feel free to contact me with any questions.

In Solidarity,

 
Ronald J. Demicheli
President, AFGE Local 1916
