Local 88 Steward Training

April 26 @ 8:00 AM - April 27 @ 4:00 PM

Whether you have been a steward for many years, or new to the position, this 2-day training is for you! This training will walk new stewards (and those that need a refresher) through their critical skills, concepts and scenarios to become an effective steward. As new union activists, you will become familiar with your contract, learn about basic worker rights, and the role of the steward as an organizer, leader, communicator and advocate in the workplace. Seasoned stewards will serve as a source of knowledge, exchange best practices with others, and learn new tactics for identifying leaders. We invite you to learn and connect, as we build collective power!

When:
April 26th-27th, 2024
8:00 AM- 4:00 PM

Where:
SEIU 503 Building, 525 NE Oregon St. Portland OR 97232

Participants will:

  • Learn the roles and responsibilities of a steward in the workplace.
  • Get familiar with your contract and other worker rights and how to enforce them.
  • Learn the 5 steps of the grievance process.
  • Discuss tips, tools, and strategies for being a great steward.
  • Learn the appropriate and respectful terms to use in discussing issues about race and gender oppression
