THE OPPORTUNITY: UNIFOR PUBLIC REVIEW BOARD MEMBER&nbsp;This is a unique opportunity for individuals looking to contribute meaningfully to democratic governance in the Canadian labour movement. The UNIFOR Public Review Board&nbsp;(PRB)/Commission indépendante d’appel (CIA) is currently seeking to fill two positions on the Board. The PRB is an independent tribunal that adjudicates disputes between members of Unifor and the Union. It is a unique body among Canadian labour unions and makes a valuable contribution to Unifor’s commitment to democracy, accountability and transparency. The PRB does not have a policy or governance role outside of the adjudication of disputes. Information about the PRB can also be found on our website at <a href="http://www.uniforprb.ca/" target="_blank">www.uniforprb.ca</a>.&nbsp;Unifor is Canada’s largest private sector union, with more than 315,000 members across the country, working in every major sector of the economy. Governed by Unifor’s Constitution, the PRB is made up of five members from across Canada appointed by Unifor’s National Executive Board.&nbsp;ABOUT THE PRB&nbsp;The PRB has its origins in a Tribunal that was initially created in 1957 by the International Union, the United Autoworkers at the behest of its then President, Walter Reuther. When the Canadian Autoworkers Union left the International in 1985, the PRB was adopted by the CAW and, in 2013, the PRB found its current home in Unifor following the merger of the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW) and the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada (CEP). The PRB reviews the decisions and actions of subordinate bodies within Unifor, primarily the National Executive Board and the Committee on Constitutional Matters. The Board adjudicates disputes relating to, among other matters, the conduct of elections by locals, alleged violations of the Code of Ethics and Democratic Practices, the processing of charges against Union members and officers, and has a limited supervisory role regarding the handling of grievances.&nbsp;ABOUT THE ROLE&nbsp;As a member of the PRB, you will join a team adjudicating disputes between the Union and its members. You will be expected to review materials related to requests for review and preside over hearings with other PRB members (live or via videoconference) when necessary. You will contribute to the resolution of requests for review and appeals of charges and provide feedback to the PRB Chair regarding draft reasons for decision. The term of the appointment is three years, and it can be renewed once for a maximum of two consecutive three-year terms.&nbsp;This role is primarily remote. The time commitment that is required varies depending on the number of cases where review by the PRB is sought, however members should anticipate an average requirement to contribute approximately two days per month.A)&nbsp; Ideal candidates may come from a range of backgrounds but should have practical experience and/or demonstrated expertise in at least one of following areas:&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Experience in a unionized environment and/or background in industrial/labour relations&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Experience in adjudication or dispute settlement (including in a non-unionized environment)&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Experience in law or advocacy (including community advocacy)B)&nbsp; Required qualities:&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Commitment to fairness and transparency&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Commitment to social justice and equality&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Normative commitment to the labour movement and belief in the collective representation of workers&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Commitment to democratic values and appreciation of their application in the union context in Canada&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ability to identify conflicts of interests&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ability to appreciate and consider the interests of all parties to a dispute&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sensitivity and awareness of principles of equity, diversity and inclusion&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Excellent oral and written communication skills&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ability to review and synthesize large volumes of information&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Bilingualism (English and French) is not required but bilingual candidates are strongly preferredC)&nbsp; Key responsibilities include:&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Review materials submitted by parties to reviews/appeals and memoranda drafted by the&nbsp;Board’s Executive Secretary&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Discuss the disputes put before the Board with Board members in monthly meetings&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Preside over hearings, listen actively to participants and pose appropriate questions to understand all facets of the dispute&nbsp;•&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Review and comment on draft decisions prepared by the Chair.
