What do others say?
“FICA is doing a fabulous job…they know issues that we have and ensure they are shared. There is strength in numbers, so collaboration is critical”
“We have confidence FICA will speak for us in industry discussions.”
“It’s a safe place to ask for help and to share frustrations. It’s a voice to the forest companies/managers and government that we don’t have to deal directly with them and FICA can mediate for us on our behalf.”
“We have found the FICA membership very beneficial with receiving regular current information for the industry, safety alerts, upcoming workshops, new initiatives and more! We believe FICA is doing awesome work in making logging a more professional industry and advocating for logging contractors.”
