Mortenson Construction, construction magazine for the new Milwaukee Bucks arena in Milwaukee, WI, and local unions have finalized a project labor agreement (PLA) that outlines the "rules of engagement" for the arena construction projects and all employees and skilled trades workers who will work on the project.

The PLA includes provisions for a peaceful dispute resolution process that prohibits strikes, lockouts and other actions disruptive to the construction process. The PLA also includes language providing a prevailing-wage guarantee for all workers on the projects.

PLAs between the unions and the general contractors on the new Milwaukee Bucks training facility and parking structure are still pending.
