THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO SUBMIT YOUR AVAILABILITY TO WORK:
1. SHORT TERM AVAILABILITY FORM
Permits and Members may use the Short-Term Availability Form if they are available immediately or within the next week or so. This tool allows the Call steward to place you in jobs that have come up and start the next day or within a few days. Short-term availability forms are deleted after one week.
2. LONG TERM AVAILABILITY FORM
Members in good standing may enter their long-term availability for weeks or months in advance. Use the Long-Term Availability Form if you know the end date of your current contract so the Call Steward can line up your next job. Permits may not use the long-term availability tool.
Phoning, texting, or emailing the Call Steward will not constitute notification of your availability. The Call Steward is under no obligation to call you for work if you have not submitted your availability. Members will be called ahead of non-members. Available candidates’ names are provided to department heads and they choose who they would like to fill the call.
Feel free to indicate in the space available any restrictions you have that may prevent you from working in certain shops, i.e. if you are not interested in working in certain cities because of the distance from where you live, or if there is a type of work that you are particularly interested in (or not).
