Shop stewards are trained union representatives who help members understand the Collective Agreement, prepare for workplace meetings, and address concerns with the employer. A steward can listen, help you organize the facts, explain possible next steps, and represent you where appropriate.

Not Sure Who Your Steward Is?
You may contact any steward, member of the Local Executive, or the union office. We will connect you with the right person. You do not need to delay asking for help because your department is not listed or your regular steward is unavailable.
