Be a Staff-Rep
The importance of Union Representatives at job-sites cannot be over-emphasized. They are the front-line connection and support to members and fulfill a vital role in our union. Training is provided to assist representatives in the various aspects of the job, and the NDTA office is there for advice and assistance.
We have an amazing network of dedicated, hard-working staff reps and are hopeful that many will continue on in this role. It is always good, however, to “bring along” new members, so if you’ve thought about stepping into this role, please give it serious consideration. If you're not sure you're ready to take on the role by yourself, consider sharing the role with a more experienced rep. To learn more about the role and function of staff reps, please visit our site-based union representatives page.
Reps should be elected at school union meetings as early as possible (September). Pro-D reps and Health & Safety reps can be elected at the same meeting.
If you have never been a Union Rep, and would like more information, you can talk to someone at your school who has been in the position or call the NDTA office at (250) 354-9693.
