The amendments are then reported to the membership during the February membership meeting, and are ratified or rejected during the April membership meeting. You may contact the Resolutions Committee by e-mail, with any proposed changes.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Committee ensures that all applicable Federal and State EEO laws are followed as applied to ILEU members.

For timely answers to any EEO questions or problems, send a message to the Equal Employment Opportunity Committee. Please include "EEO" in the subject line of the e-mail.
The ILEU's Safety Committee is a special committee whose members hold at least one seat on all of the company's safety programs and/or teams. Their job is to insure the highest safety standards are adopted and adhered to, particularly as they apply to Union members. If you have at work safety issues that need to be addressed, then this committee is a good starting place to insure that your voice will be heard. Don't risk your own or a co-workers welfare through unsafe acts. Make any safety concerns known to the Safety Committee. We will provide you with timely help and information.
The Welfare Committee is charged with providing assistance to members that have suffered a particularly devastating event in their work or personal life. A small portion of your monthly dues has been ear-marked according to the ILEU constitution for this purpose. The Welfare committee has disbursed one-time contributions to members who have fallen on particularly hard times. Each situation is evaluated, and if appropriate, money may be given in an attempt to help a member through his or her ordeal. These situations are held in the strictest confidence, and no one outside of the committee is made aware of the details, or monetary amounts. If you know of a member who might be in need of this type of assistance, contact the Welfare Committee. Upon the death of a member, or anyone in the immediate family or household of any Union member, the ILEU will send a floral or spiritual bouquet, a bible, or donations to recognized charities in lieu of floral or spiritual bouquets to the member or the family of the member. If you know of a death in the family of any of our members, you can contact the President directly, or call (908) 730-2088 to let us know.
