If you run a union contracting business, you know payroll isn’t just about cutting checks. It’s about managing multiple pay rates, staying compliant with union reciprocity agreements, calculating fringe benefits, and producing union reports with zero room for error. For many contractors, these tasks consume thousands of hours each year – time that could be spent growing the business and focusing on their team.

Miter is the only all-in-one workforce management platform built for union contractors. It takes the complexity out of union payroll by automatically applying the right pay rates, calculating fringes, and generating accurate union reporting – all in one system that integrates seamlessly with your ERP.

Miter generates certified payroll reports, workers’ comp documentation, and union reporting with a few clicks. Reports are audit-ready and include detailed hours, wages, and fringes by local, trade, and classification, and can be produced in common formats so you can upload directly to LCPTracker, eMars, Elation, EComply, and other submission platforms.

Union contractors using Miter have reported dramatic results:

  • CVE eliminated the need for an additional payroll hire and is saving over 2,600 hours a year.
  • Almendariz Consulting saves 1,400+ hours annually using Miter.
  • Adams Plumbing used their time savings to focus on business growth, landing contracts 12X bigger than before.
  • W.J. O’Neil went from spending over an hour every week on union rate management to less than 15 minutes.

Why? Because Miter helps contractors:

  • Stay compliant without administrative headaches and manual work.
  • Manage multiple pay rates, fringes, and benefits for union and non-union employees
  • Handle union reciprocity when employees work across jurisdictions
  • Generate union and certified payroll reporting with a few clicks

Miter is trusted by hundreds of union HVAC, sheet metal, mechanical, and electrical contractors nationwide – including McCusker-Gill, host of SMACNA’s April 2025 Fab Forum.
