Since the creation of our Shop Stewards Program in 1985, hundreds of UFCW members have stepped forward to assume their share of the responsibility for the progress of our members.
Our Shop Stewards now make an important contribution to the overall education and communication with the members throughout our vast jurisdiction. New members especially are not fully aware of their rights under the various collective bargaining agreements negotiated and enforced by this Union.
UFCW 8 Stewards serve in one of the largest Unions in Central and Northern California. We continue to grow, and it is as crucial to our success as ever that all of our members become enlightened men and women who will stand up and fight for what they have worked for and earned.
I congratulate and thank each of our Stewards for doing their share to strengthen our alliance of workers dedicated to achieving their fair and equitable goals through maximizing the principles of the Trade Union Movement.
This uniquely great Union belongs to each of us, but it takes our ongoing dedication and hard work to protect and improve what we have achieved together.
It is my pleasure and my honor to work with you in service to the wonderful members we are so privileged to represent.
With warm personal regards, fraternally and respectfully,
