About Steward Trainings
Steward trainings are held throughout the year. Trainings are for both those who are already stewards and those wanting to become one. Trainings are usually a full day of skills building and workshops. Trainees receive a specially developed Stewards Manual.
Once a year, usually in the fall, UFCW 21 holds our Stewards Conference for all stewards to gather, learn from each other, and develop skills, build deeper solidarity, and make connections with fellow union members from across the state.
If you are interested in becoming a steward or have questions, contact your Union Representative. Don't know your Union Rep? Click here to find their name and contact information.
MultiCare Leadership Summit
As an example of buidling stronger connections in the workplace, over thirty MultiCare Stewards and leaders attended the MultiCare Leadership Summit at UFCW 21's Seattle office. MultiCare contracts often set standards in our industry. That leadership summit was a helpful step toward developing stronger connections among workplace leaders prior to the 2010-2011 Contract Negotiations. The new contracts, ratified in 2011, were hard-fought contracts that could help push issues important to all of us in the health care industry.
