All exhibit labor for 8:00 AM starting times will be dispatched to booth space. For all other starting times, please check in at the labor desk one half (1/2) hour before the time requested (confirm labor and forklifts by 2:30 PM the day before date requested). Any labor cancelled without a 24-hour notice will be charged a one (1) hour cancellation fee per worker. If your show is targeted we recommend for you to schedule labor the day after your target date if possible. All rates are subject to change if necessitated by increased labor and material costs. The operation or use of all equipment is not permitted by exhibitors or their appointed contractors.
Exhibitors requiring electrical installation labor will automatically be charged a dismantle fee. Dismantle labor is charged at 50% of installation labor based on show close/move-out days/times (overtime rates may apply) and does not need to be scheduled. If electricians are required in booth at a specific time for dismantle, please notify the GES Electrical Service Desk at the show.
For Stagehand Labor:
If an Exhibitor fails to use the labor at the time confirmed, a (one (1) hour) "No-Show" charge of eight (8) hours per Head Department Stagehand and five (5) hours per Extra Stagehand minimum will be applied per worker with the 1hr minimum for equipment. The minimum charge for labor is one (1) hour per worker. Thereafter, labor is charged in one (1) hour increments.
For all other Labor:
If an Exhibitor fails to use the labor at the time confirmed, a one (1) hour "No-Show" charge, per worker, will apply. The minimum charge for labor is one (1) hour per worker. Thereafter, labor is charged in half (1/2) hour increments.
Please note that gratuities in any form, including but not limited to, cash, gifts or payment for work not actually performed, are prohibited by GES.

Because estimating the number of workers and hours required for installation or dismantling of your booth can be difficult, this is just an estimate. Your invoice will be calculated with the actual hours worked and based on the date received. Any additional labor utilized will be calculated and invoiced at the Show Site rate.
