Across the labor movement, employers have forced tiers into union contracts. By denying newer hires equal pay, job security and access to the benefits other workers enjoy, bosses not only save money but also create a divided workforce.

This workshop is intended for stewards and elected officers who work closely with stewards. Please register only if this applies to you. Chances are that we've all been to a bad meeting. One person talked the whole time, the meeting ran way too long, people left with no clearer sense of what to do about their workplace problems, and so on. But meetings don't have to be this way. Meetings can be a way for shop stewards to bring their co-workers together to build strength in their fight against the boss—when they're run effectively. »
