Retiree Spotlight: Daniel Smith

In an industry as tough as construction, IUOE Local 701 retiree Daniel Smith says operating engineers need to prioritize their retirement plans. “The people that are working non-union get a little [retirement funds] here and a little there, and get a 401K that doesn't amount to much,” Smith said, “And by the time they get up to their 60s, 70s, and 80s, literally, you see these guys that are 80-years-old still trying to work and build their retirement.”
