Welcome to USW Local 2010 representing Academic Assistants, Residence Dons, and Support Staff!
Being a member of the United Steelworkers (USW) means that you are part of a progressive, worldwide movement to defend worker and human rights. The USW is the largest private sector Union in North America with more than 225,000 members in Canada and more than 800,000 members continent-wide.
The USW is Canada’s most diverse Union, representing men and women working in every sector of the economy. With more than 9,000 members employed as staff in universities in Ontario, the USW has a strong record of representation in the post-secondary education sector.
Because Local 2010 is your Union, you will have the opportunity to voice your concerns about work and your future, as well as ways to improve your community. We will share the challenges and the rewards that come from working together by being one strong, united voice. We will stand together and use our collective strength to ensure better, safer working conditions.
As a new Employee at Queen’s, and a new Member of the United Steelworkers, you will want to attend and reference your Orientation Kit below. Email contact@usw2010.ca if you have questions.
