Stewards and Alternates Clause Samples
The "Stewards and Alternates" clause defines the roles and responsibilities of designated representatives, known as stewards, and their alternates within an organization or under a collective agreement. Typically, this clause outlines how stewards are selected, their authority to represent employees in matters such as grievances or workplace issues, and the process for appointing alternates when primary stewards are unavailable. By clearly establishing who may act on behalf of employees and under what circumstances, this clause ensures consistent representation and helps maintain orderly communication between management and the workforce.
