Stewards are appointed as outlined in the local union bylaws or elected to their positions by the members at their job sites.

  • The investigation and presentation of grievances with the Employer or the the designated company representative in accordance with the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement;
  • The collection of dues when authorized by appropriate Local Action; and
  • The transmission of such messages and information, which shall originate with, and are authorized by the Local Union or its officiers, provided such messages and information;
