Our local committees, with
the exception of the Membership, AGM and Education committees, mirror the
National UTE committees.
You can start your
involvement in the local by becoming an active member in a committee. The
committees are always looking for people with skills that can and will assist.
For example, one of the responsibilities of the Communications committee is
this website and the committee can always use new ideas on layout and people
with web design skills to help.
Check out the full list of Committees below and see where you could help out, today
Do you need help with an issue at the office?
Can't understand the collective agreement?
Then you should contact one
of our stewards. They can help you to understand your rights under the
collective agreement and deal with issues of harassment or discrimination at
the workplace and much, much, more.
Not sure if a Steward is what you need?
Want to know what is happening in the daily business of the Local?
Looking to bring a matter to the attention of the Executive?
Then feel free to contact
any of the local executive to find out what is going
on and available. There are also courses available that can educate you on how
to interpret the Collective Agreement, Health and Safety and many other things.
