The Union's Duty of Fair Representation

Everyone wants to have smooth working relationships on the job. But, problems sometimes come up in every workplace. A Teamster contract includes a procedure to protect you from being treated unfairly or disciplined without good reason. If you think management may have violated your rights, or if you have any questions or problems at work, tell your Shop Steward. The steward and other local union leaders can answer your questions and help you figure out the best way to solve the problem. If you are unsure of who your Shop Steward or Business Agent is please let us know and we will help get you in contact with them.
