This is What we are
We are a group of Workers who formed into a Retail Wholesale Union in
1947 for the protection of each other and for the security of being able
to have some say in our working future.
The Retail Wholesale Union is a Family
Our Union is structured in a way where all members have equal say in how
the Union Constitution is structured, what the By-Laws of the Union will
say, what is in the Collective Agreements and all matters pertaining to
our Great Union and our Working Life.
The RWU is an Autonomous Union
• All officers of the Retail Wholesale Union are elected.
• Decisions are made by the membership at conventions, membership
meetings and by their elected committees and officers.
• Only those affected by a collective agreement have the right to
vote on that agreement and that membership will formulate the demands
the negotiating committee presents to the employer.
• Officers are bound by the decisions and directives of the membership.
•Each local elects its own officers and executive.
