Your Elected Executive Board is already hard at work, creating dynamics with the Company to improve our quality of life and advocacy arms on our behalf. Since Nov 1st, we have eagerly planned and created the framework for our Local 579 Leadership Team. Part of this process is establishing committees representing us across the airline, and last week we sent out a notice to sign up, send resumes and let us know your interest in becoming change makers. Dec 15th at 5 pm EST is the initial deadline to submit your interest in joining a committee or assisting in Base Executive Board Member projects. At that point, your Executive Board will begin reviewing all the applicants and setting up interviews. The new committee members will be sitting beginning Jan 1st, at which point any training that is required, depending on the committee, will commence. Following the announcement, our Committee Interest Form will be available permanently for those inspired to join.
Please know that every little bit helps. With each volunteer, that is another set of hands capable of creating more education, more advocacy, and a stronger collective bargaining position. Check out our committees that will be working on our behalf.
As your Executive Board, we are excited to have you be a part of history that will effect change across our airline. You elected us to be your representatives, and we cannot thank you enough. Our TWU Local 579 Executive team is one of the most diverse Executive Boards in the history of aviation unions. Now is the time to be the change you wish to see. So take ownership of your union and sign up to join us in carving out a path of greatness. Please fill out this link to sign up.
