Our building is eliminating one center, and is moving towns around in one of the existing centers. Through the course of these move 2 shop stewards are being dovetailed into centers that already have a shop steward. My question is this......if this has happened in your building how was it handled? Did existing steward stay on, was there an election, did seniority come into play? Just curious.
Read the contract and KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. Keep the faith.

I think there would have to be a new election so the members could decide.
