Article: Once you have finished preliminary discussions with your colleagues, begin building an organizing committee. This process involves identifying leaders who will represent all major departments and all shifts at your workplace and leaders who will, ideally, reflect the racial, ethnic, and gender diversity at your place of work. Members of the organization committee will require training on educating themselves about the union and educating other coworkers about both the union and the anti-union campaign from the management that will likely follow. Organizing committee members will also require education on workers’ rights in your particular jurisdiction. You will also need, at this stage, to gather important information about your workplace for future reference. This information includes:  workplace structure:  departments, areas of work, shifts, jobs.  employee information: name, address, phone, shift, job title, and department for each worker.  employer information:  other locations, parent company, product(s), customers, union history.

What is a summary?
Establish an organizing committee. Train committee members. Gather important information about the workplace.
