United Steelworkers of America : Labour union

The Steel Workers Organizing Committee (SWOC) was one of several committees established to organize industrial workers under the umbrella of the Committee for Industrial Organization. In 1936 CIO President John L. Lewis placed Silby Barrett, Director of the United Mine Workers of America in Nova Scotia, in charge of SWOC in Canada. Charles Millard was appointed Regional Director in 1939. In 1942 the United Steelworkers of America (USWA) was formed and Millard was appointed National Director of the Union in Canada. He was re-elected to this position until his retirement in 1956 when he was succeeded by William Mahoney. Gérard Docquier was elected to the position upon Mahoney's retirement in 1977.

The National Director is responsible for the provision of specialized services including research and publicity, and has a co-ordinating role for the union in Canada. The District Directors handle contract negotiations and administration, and organizational work, except when such matters are assigned to the National Director for special reasons. Initially the USWA divided Canada into two districts: District 5 covering the Maritimes and District 6 encompassing the rest of the country. In 1946 Quebec was transferred to the jurisdiction of District 5 and in 1961 District 5 was restricted to Quebec and the Atlantic provinces were designated District 2.
