Organizing Help Wanted

CWA Local 1298 is looking for 2 people to help us with our organizing campaigns. Union organizers help people who work secure union representation at their worksite. A union organizer informs people (mostly nonunion workers) about their rights, identifies and develops leadership skills among workers, explains the union organizing process and helps the workers campaign for union recognition. The organizer builds relationships based on what those workers do on their jobs, the problems they face at work and challenges and inspires them to get involved with their co-workers to have a say on the job by organizing a union. The ultimate goal is for workers to build power in their workplaces by winning a binding agreement with their employer that makes real improvements in their living and working conditions. Being a self-initiater and having good communication skills is important in this job. If you feel as though you would be a good fit to help with this type of work,  please call Union HQ 203-288-5271 and leave your name to either Marilyn or Laureen. You will be contacted with additional details and scheduled for an interview.
