[QUOTE="InsideUPS, post: 1086136, member: 31414"] PiedmontSteward is giving you good advice....... Normally stewards in our area are elected during contract time. For example....during our 2012 proposal meeting...Union Stewards were nominated and elected. In cases like yours, a simple petition like PiedmontSteward outlined is all that is needed. An extra part-time steward can always be added for the benefit of inside employees (assuming you are part-time). I highly recommend that you become familiar with the contract although you certainly do not have to memorize it. Contact your Local Union and set up a meeting with your BA (Business Agent). He will be your best resource and will ultimately be the decision maker in any grievances you may file. Your job as a Union Steward is difficult, often thankless, and depending on your demeanor....will often put you at odds with the company and/or the employee that you are representing. Believe me......it's not easy but it is rewarding when you are able to resolve workplace issues in an amicable and mutually beneficial manner..... [/QUOTE]
