Intro Shop Steward Level 2

A two-day workshop for HEU members who are currently stewarding at their worksite, and who have already taken Level 1 Steward Training.

If you are not currently a steward, and are interested in becoming one, you should apply for the Level 1 Steward Training.

You will need either the local chairperson or secretary-treasurer to sign or endorse your application.

In this workshop, you will:

• Build on the skills you have developed as a shop steward and enhance your understanding of collective agreements rights
• Prepare to meet effectively with management
• Practice and build confidence to present grievances to management
• Raise awareness of the stewards’ role in recognizing oppression and discrimination, and strengthening equity in the workplace and union
• Evaluate and determine the most effective ways to resolve issues and grievances
• Practice problem solving by applying an organizing approach for collective power

Please note the original deadline to apply has been extended to March 11.
