Stewards and Representation:
We receive a lot of calls asking "who is the steward in 'my area?"'. It has been many years since the chapter was required to assign stewards to a specific work area, the only area they were allowed to represent employees in. Our current contract allows any steward to represent bargaining-unit employees in ANY office. When you need to speak with a steward you should phone the Union Office at Ext. 6324 and we will arrange for you to meet with a Chapter Steward.

Investigation Meetings With A Member of Management:
If you are called in as a witness in an investigation you are entitled to union representation. Requesting representation doesn't mean you have something to hide, it means you are smart. Tell the specialist you request representation and do not meet until you get it. NOTE: Sometime after the interview/investigation Labor Relations provides a statement/affidavit/declaration (in other words, their notes of the meeting) and asks you to sign it. You are not required to sign this.
