The Essential Role of Shop Stewards
Shop stewards are a vital part of how any union functions. As the face of PSAC in the workplace, stewards help ensure members understand their rights, workplace issues are addressed early, and the collective agreement is respected.
Whether elected or appointed, shop stewards support members by answering questions, providing guidance, representing employees in meetings, and promoting fairness in the workplace. They help build solidarity, strengthen communication, and keep the union visible and active at the ground level.
Local 70008 provides training and support for all stewards, ensuring they have the tools they need to advocate effectively.
