Local Secretary and Treasurer

The purpose of this page is to assist the UTU local secretary/treasurer with the duties of his or her office.

Below you will have access to the computerized bookkeeping program, Winstabs 2005, a variety of forms that are frequently used by our local treasurers and links to other important or useful websites.

We have also provided a link to an e-mail box where you can submit questions regarding your duties as a local treasurer. Your questions will be submitted to the general secretary and treasurer, or to members of his staff, for prompt consideration. The UTU will also post your question, along with a reply, to assist other local treasurers.

Also, note the secretary/treasurer checklist at the bottom of this page for filing various reports with International.

We hope you find these tools helpful in fulfilling your duties and welcome your comments on how the International could further assist you.
