Transparent:
Members should have easy access to all information about the union’s income, spending and opportunities. All members should be able to access this information without things being bundled together to where it is not easy to make sense of. The information should be delivered in a timely fashion.
Reliable:
When members are told or promised something, they need to count on the union to follow through and to follow up in a timely fashion. Officers and Shop Steward need to be available when the members need them. The members need to count on reliable information that is presented clearly.
Unity:
Unions need to be consistent with the members. All members are equal and must receive the same opportunities as each other.
Education:
Unions need to maintain a high standard of education within the membership. Keeping a continual training program for all members will prevent confusion and miss communications.
