ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

Union Executive Board Structure and Reporting Hierarchy

IUOE Local 727 is a labour organization that begins with our members. Our union leaders, representatives, agents,
and stewards are experts in labour relations. With the active participation of our members, we strive to improve the
working conditions and lives of all 727 paramedics.

REPORTING STRUCTURE

Hierarchy of the Local Union with respect to Representation,
Business and Labour Relations:


PRESIDENT

The Executive Board President is elected and tasked with being the Chair at Executive Board and membership meetings to ensure the rules of order, the Constitution, and the Local Union rules are not waived.

The President does not function as the Business Manager of the Local Union office and is not directly involved with Labour Relations and the representative aspect of the Local Union's duties unless they are also a paid Union Employee.

As the President alone, they do not receive a salary or represent the membership in day-to-day operations.



VICE PRESIDENT

The Executive Board Vice President is elected and sits as a regular officer and fulfills the duties of the President in their absence.



TREASURER

The Executive Board Treasurer is elected. They affirm the financial audits prepared by an independent auditing firm each year and read the audits and financial reports at the Annual General Meeting.



RECORDING SECRETARY

The Executive Board Recording Secretary is elected. They record and distribute the minutes of the Executive Board meeting.



NOTE: IF, BY CHANCE, ANY OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD OFFICERS ARE ALSO APPOINTED SITE OR REGIONAL STEWARDS AS STEWARDS, THEY HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO FILE A GRIEVANCE AND REPRESENT SITE ISSUES, ETC.
