You would think that there would be someone in this persons building that could answer these kinds of questions...

Crazy, I know....

You would think that that would be far more accurate too.

I don't even have a union card yet? No one has said anything to me regarding the union. I asked the supervisor but he said there was nothing else I need to do and that I was officially full time. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If that supervisor told you, all dues were to be paid to him, would you believe that, too?

 

[Ralph Kramden]

Thanks , still no real clarification haha. Can you ever get a straight answer here?

Ask your steward he should have all the info you need

This is exactly why the Union needs to have their own orientation program for all new hires.

After 8 consecutive weeks of contributions on you behalf if you're full time or after 12 months if you're part time.

In the central region after you qualify you have to work in 8 calendar weeks to become eligible. You are not in the central region so I suggest you call this man.

Call your local union hall

I have long advocated for this. Sadly the turn out would likely be about 10%

Or the locals can train the stewards who are there daily with a comprehensive q and a pamphlet that fits in your pocket.
