Contribution Model
Funding for the WFDT is generated by industry through a joint contribution model: Employers and workers each contribute 1 cent per hour worked on maintenance and new construction projects.
Annual Funding Cycle
The Board of Trustees reviews eligible proposals annually and selects beneficiaries each June. Approved funding is generally issued quarterly in July, October, January, and April; however, the Board may authorize one-time payments where appropriate.
Governance & Oversight
WFDT is jointly governed by representatives from the CLRA and Coordinating Committee, and the Building Trades of Alberta.
