BCGEU is pleased to offer a Steward Basics webinar for new stewards in Area 07. This webinar is for you if you are a steward but have not yet attended our Steward Fundamentals course or any previous steward training webinars.

By the end of this webinar, you will understand:

- your rights and responsibilities as a steward

- how to get started as a steward

- the grievance procedure

- how to handle disciplinary grievances

This does not replace our in-person STEP UP! and Steward Fundamentals courses. Once we can offer those in-person courses safely, you will be invited to register for them.

Below are the details for the upcoming webinar:

Course: Online Steward Basics Webinar

Date: December 8 & 9, 2021

Location: via Zoom

Please register by December 1, 2021, as space is limited. If training is full and you would like to be added to the waitlist, please email [email protected]

A union-paid leave of absence can be provided for this training. If your employer will approve the time off work, you can submit your leave of absence requirements at the same time you register.
