Article XIX - Qualifications of Members
Sec. 1. Any worker coming under the I.B.E.W.'s jurisdiction, of
good character, not less than sixteen (16) years of age, is eligible
to membership, provided he passes a satisfactory examination
when required to do so by the L.U.
Sec. 2. If, after being admitted to membership, it is later found upon investigation that a member is not sufficiently acquainted with the branch or type of work on which he is engaged to earn or command the established wages, then a L.U. can, through its Executive or Examining Board or an especially appointed committee, require such member to revert to the proper apprentice grade and pay rate, to attend electrical study classes or devote time toward becoming a competent, properly informed electrical mechanic or employee.
