“Balancing family and work" The USW is a leader in ensuring that our collective agreements and policies are taking care of the needs of our increasing female membership.

As Steelworkers we must speak out against harassment and stand together to protect human rights.  To learn more, click here:

Opening Doors  - Steelworkers' Policy on Disability Rights: The challenge of disability can face anyone of us at any time in our lives. As a child or an adult, as a parent or a friend. All of us probably know someone who is disabled and having problems with their job. Disability can be caused by work or happen while we are away from work.  To read more, click here:
