The role of the steward

The steward's role is vital in supporting other members at work. Without stewards the CSP has no voice in the workplace and no way of knowing what problems members are facing.

Stewards perform their role in a range of working environments most notably in the NHS, social enterprise companies and community interest companies, but not exclusively.

Being a steward is a great way to learn new skills, support your colleagues, develop your career and make a real difference. So go on, get elected today!
