[QUOTE="submarine, post: 181307, member: 9449"] Get a copy of your local's bylaws and see what it says as far as electing/appointing stewards. Then follow whatever procedures are in place to raise this issue at your general membership meeting. If you can, get as many preloaders to go down with you (union members in good standing) and DEMAND representation on your shift. If this fails it's time to contact a good labor attorney. A union is an organization like any other, with failings and successes. If left alone to it's own devices, abuses can happen. Just as Government has the media as it's watchdog, the members need to take part in what is going on in THEIR Union. I think you are on the right path and I commend you for the steps you have taken so far. If you were in my state I would be standing beside you when you went down with your demands. [/QUOTE]
