If you are aware, active, passionate about what is right, and able to see through certain transparent management explanations, you should consider becoming a Union Job Steward.

Our Union stays strong when members get involved in their workplace to monitor the contract, uphold workers’ rights and unite co-workers together around important issues. 
Stewards are Organizers
who help mobilize members into action, encourage co-workers to come to meetings, and introduce themselves to new members. 
Stewards are Educators
who explain to members the importance of working union and how to make the Union Contract work for you. Education is a two way process. Stewards learn from the members about the issues happening in the workplace. 
Stewards are Leaders and Communicators
who keep the members informed about what happens at union meetings, community actions and other union activities. Stewards set examples for workplace fairness. 
Stewards are Advocates
who represent members at grievances and ensure just cause is met for disciplinary actions. Members rely on Stewards to represent their needs and concerns.
