Accessibility Committee

This committee develops the affirmative action plan for recruitment and training of disabled members as union stewards, bargaining unit representatives, committee members and officers. They also recommend actions to remove barriers to participation and activism by disabled members, and help District Labor Councils (DLCs) create strategies regarding issues affecting disabled workers. The Disabled in State Workforce Committee recommends appropriate steward and leadership training modules on issues affecting the disabled in the workplace and coordinates their activities with the other Local 1000 committees.
