All Executive Board positions are voted on every 4 years as per our bylaws. The next scheduled election will be held in June, 2024, with nominations in May of the same year. Any position that becomes vacant prior to an election may be filled in consultation with the Business Manager & the Local Union Executive Board.
The Business Manager/Financial Secretary, President, Vice-President, Recording Secretary, and Treasurer positions are elected with a mail in ballot sent to every member of the local.
All Unit members are elected from their respective units at their unit meetings for example an EPCOR employee could not run for a Capital Power Unit.
