Important Info for Upcoming Union Election 

Online Voting

SHARE members will be able to vote electronically for the first time, using a smartphone, tablet or computer. The process will be run by an independent, certified online voting company. There is also an option to vote by mail for those who prefer it. Electronic voting will make participation easier for employees who are on vacation, working from home, or who are not easily able to get away from their department.      

Update Your Contact Info 

We need to make sure we have your personal contact information for the upcoming SHARE Rep and Executive Board Elections. The online voting company can send the link/ballot by:  

  • text to your cell phone number,

  • email to your personal (non-work) email account, or

  • U.S. mail to your home address

So, to prepare for the election, we need to have your up-to-date contact information. You can update your contact info one of two ways. (1) click here, OR (2) email share.elections@theshareunion.org to send your contact info by 5/3/21.    

If you Prefer to Vote by Mail

Please email us at share.elections@theshareunion.org by 5/3/21 to let us know that you would prefer to have a paper ballot mailed to your home.    

When Are Elections? 

You’ll be receiving a letter inviting you to nominate your co-workers and/or yourself in early May. If we have more nominees than available slots, we’ll hold elections in early June.    

Haven’t Yet Signed Your Membership Card? 

There are some of you, especially newer employees, who haven’t signed a membership card yet. While there are a number of reasons why this might be, we want to make sure we give you a heads-up so that you can sign up to be a member in time for the vote.  

If you have any questions about joining the union, don’t hesitate to contact us by emailing share.newmembers@theshareunion.org, calling 508-929-4020 or reaching out to your SHARE organizer, rep or executive board member directly. You may also find the answers to some common questions by clicking this FAQ about SHARE Union membership.   

If you’re ready to join today, click here to find a PDF of the card online. To send SHARE a signed card via email, you can print the card, sign, scan and email it to share.newmembers@theshareunion.org. To send via mail, please let your organizer know your address and we’ll send you a blank card along with a pre-stamped envelope.
