Sign Your Authorization Card!
Forming a union is a democratic process.
We intend to obtain union recognition by having a majority of WWU Operational Student Employees (OSEs) sign union authorization cards. When a majority of us sign cards to authorize our representation by UAW, the Washington State Public Employee Relations Commission will count the cards and approve our petition to form a union.

To sign the card, complete the form below , or visit this page for instructions for downloading a PDF of the authorization card and mailing it to us.
