Your steward, often in consultation with one of <strong>Local</strong> <strong>37</strong>'s full time<br />

union representatives, will help you determine if a grievance<br />

should be filed. A grievance is basically a formal complaint against<br />

an employer for violating the contract, work rules, or labour laws.<br />

In addition to representing members in the workplace, shop<br />

stewards have other duties that include, educating members about<br />

the union and the labour movement, encouraging members to<br />

attend meetings, helping organize new members, and acting as the<br />

liaison between union officers and the bargaining unit members.<br />

For the latest list of shop stewards, sorted by bargaining unit and<br />

work location, go to the <strong>Local</strong> <strong>37</strong> website or contact the office<br />

directly. If you're interested in becoming a shop steward, just let<br />

us know and we'll send you an application form.<br />
