Civil Rights Committee

The Civil Rights Committee serves as guardian over the Local Union's interest to assure members full rights regardless of religion, race, creed, color, sex, political affiliation, national origin, age or handicap. The Committee informs members of steps and procedures, including filing of complaints and hearings, whenever a member or members believe their rights have been violated, either by management or other union members. The Committee, in cooperation with the UAW Civil Rights Department, works toward the elimination of discrimination in the workplace, the community and the nation. Services are provided by the Civil Rights Department of the International Union.
