Union Organizer

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A union organizer is a specific type of trade union member or an appointed union official. A majority of unions appoint rather than elect their organizers. In most unions, the organizer's role is to recruit groups of workers under the organizing model. In other unions, the organizer's role is largely that of servicing members and enforcing work rules, similar to the role of a shop steward. In some unions, organizers may also take on industrial/legal roles such as making representations before the Australian Industrial Relations Commissions, tribunals, or courts. In North America, a union organizer is a union representative who "organizes" or unionizes non-union companies or worksites. Though some organizers may be volunteers from the union rank-and-file, they are more usually paid professionals. Organizers primarily exist to assist non-union workers in forming chapters of locals, usually by leading them in their efforts.
