The Electrical Contractors Association of Ontario (ECAO) represents approximately 550 unionized electrical and communications contracting firms, the majority of whom are small to medium-sized. The ECAO contractors employ over 15,000 electricians, power line workers, communication workers, apprentices and generate more than $20 million hours worth of electrical, utility and communications work annually.

ECAO membership is distributed among eleven area Electrical Contractors Associations (ECAs) covering the entire province. The area ECAs are our source of representation to internal committees, boards and external organizations such as COCA, providing geographically diverse and representative input to industry issues. ECAO is active on the both the COCA Board of Directors and Executive Governance committee.
