Upon completion of the process County Labor Relations will be given notice of your appointment. Without this formal notification you are not recognized as a legal representative of the union, even if you have completed the training and sent in the questionnaire.
There are times when someone who volunteers to take on the duties of being a shop steward is not appointed. Some examples:
