Becoming a Steward, or representative, you must first tell the Union that you are interested by filling out this form. Next, you will be scheduled for a short interview, where you and Union staff can get to know each other, discuss the details of being a Steward, and gives you a chance to ask any questions you may have. If staff believes you are a good fit for a Local representative, you will be advised as to the next Shop Steward training, which you will have to complete to start being a Steward.
