- The representative of the union on the picket line.
- The leader of the picket line – inspiring picketers, solving problems, listening, answering questions, speaking with visitors.
- Helping to make sure the picket line is safe and accessible for everyone.
- Helping members check-in and log their hours.
- The link between the Strike Committee / Picket Coordinators and the picket line.
