Health Gauge

Across the unions we serve, the biggest health trends we’re seeing are clear: elevated blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar levels.

These numbers matter because they can be early warning signs for more serious health issues down the road — but they’re also things people can take action on with the right support, education, and screening.

That’s why our work matters. By helping members understand their numbers, connect to resources, and take preventive steps early, we can make a real difference in long-term health outcomes.

Know your numbers. Ask questions. Take action early.

“I might not be here today.” — IBEW Local 481 Member

This is exactly why these screenings matter.

At the March 7th IBEW 481 event:
302 members were screened—and serious risks were identified early, before symptoms showed up.

Most of these conditions have no warning signs.
Don’t put it off.

When the next event opens:
✔ Get scheduled
✔ Bring your spouse
✔ Take advantage of what your Fund provides at no cost

Early detection can save your life.

For the members who show up every day—
we’re here to help you stay healthy for the long haul.

That’s what World Health Day is all about.

At Health Gauge, we’re not just showing up for one day.
We’re helping unions across the country catch risk early, prevent major health events, and take care of the people who keep everything running.

Because when you take care of your health, you protect your future—and your family.

👉 If your local isn’t offering screenings yet, let’s change that.
Reach out to bring Health Gauge to your union.

Just a glimpse of the impact our teams are making nationwide.

Behind every screening is a dedicated team working tirelessly—from setup to teardown—to bring preventative care directly to our members, wherever they are. These moments offer a snapshot of that effort in action.

In Indianapolis, we partnered with IBEW Local 481 to screen 302 members in just six hours—demonstrating what’s possible with a committed team and a shared mission—while in Omaha, we spent time with IBEW Local 22, screening 208 members over the course of a three-day health fair.

We’re proud of the commitment, resilience, and heart our field teams bring to communities across the country. This is what it looks like to meet people where they are—and make a difference.

This spring, we held our annual training at our home local — Laborers' Local 177.

Health Gauge is proud to be a union company, built on union values and serving locals across the country.

Our crew puts in the work — long hours, travel, and showing up for your members. And like the trades, we believe in one thing: training. That’s how you build the best of the best — and that’s what your members deserve.

We don’t just run screenings.
We show up as a union company, for union members.

Proud of where we come from.
Proud of the work we do.
And ready for a big year ahead.

Strong unions take care of their own — and so do we.

Over the months of December and January, Health Gauge was proud to partner with IUOE Local 49 and Team Corporation to deliver comprehensive health screenings to IUOE 49 members and retirees across the region.

Reach & Impact:

✔️ 10 locals visited
✔️ 10 different cities served across Minnesota & North Dakota
✔️ 1000+ members and retirees screened
✔️ 170+ members learned they had carotid plaque before symptoms appeared
✔️ 8 aneurysms were caught early
✔️ 1 in 4 members had blood sugar levels needing follow-up
✔️ Nearly half had cholesterol results worth paying attention to

Most importantly — two-thirds of participants were returning members. That tells us one thing:
These screenings are worth it!

Health issues don’t usually come with warning signs. That’s why early detection matters.

We’re especially grateful for TEAM’s ongoing engagement with members, offering confidential advocacy, wellness support, and care coordination that help members and their families navigate healthcare with confidence. Working alongside TEAM to serve 49ers and support their overall well-being is truly an honor.

We’re excited to be back again this April to continue delivering these important services!
