Holliston, MA (October 2025). A leading electrical contractor throughout New England and the Southeast for nearly five decades, Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc. (Griffin Electric) has long been committed to promoting opportunities in the trades and providing access to the construction industry as a whole. Griffin Electric recognizes the importance of Construction Inclusion Week, and is proud to promote construction to different audiences, help grow the skilled trade workforce, and enhance the experience of all construction professionals.
The desire to build a strong workforce stretches beyond its own individual recruiting needs, and Griffin Electric works closely with schools and organizations for women, people of color, veterans, and historically disadvantaged communities throughout the year to educate and recruit those who offer unique skills and perspectives. It also partners with other contractors in the industry to help highlight to people of different backgrounds some of the great opportunities that the trades present.
Construction Inclusion Week is an important reminder that the success of the company and the future of the industry rely heavily on the cultivation of highly skilled electrical craft workers, and Griffin Electric understands the importance of having a voice in shaping the vision for the future of the industry. Construction is for everyone, and the company will continue to do what it can to open the door to opportunities for people from all backgrounds. Change does not and will not happen overnight, but working together is an important first step to making collective strides toward an industry that is more reflective of the world we live in.
Apprenticeship can be a great gateway to a career in the trades, and Griffin Electric is proud to promote its fully accredited in-house Apprenticeship Training Program as a debt-free alternative option to traditional schooling. Separated into four levels of instruction, the program takes place on-site at the company’s Holliston, MA headquarters, as well as at each of the company’s regional offices in Alabama, Georgia, and North Carolina. Griffin apprentices earn excellent compensation and receive full benefits while gaining 8,000 hours of practical field experience under the supervision of a licensed journeyperson. They are also eligible for wage increases every six months, based on grades and work performance.
At Griffin Electric, learning is emphasized throughout all levels of the company. As part of its commitment to providing opportunities for individuals to continue to learn and grow in their careers, the company offers complimentary classes, seminars, and workshops covering personal and career development-related topics to help all employees be their best.
