Steelworkers know what it means to step up when our communities need us. This Election Day, you can put that same spirit of service to work by becoming a poll worker!
What Does a Poll Worker Do?
Poll workers are our friends, family members and neighbors who help local elections run smoothly. They welcome voters, help with check-in, answer questions, provide assistance when needed and help make sure everyone has a positive experience at the polls.
Most of these roles are temporary and paid, requiring a short training period commitment and attendance on the day of the election. Poll workers are critical to help maintain safe in-person voting for communities without reliable access to mail service, voters with disabilities, voters who need language assistance, or for voters who simply want to cast their ballot in person as they always have.

Serving as a poll worker is a valuable way to give back to your community and support your neighbors. It's one of the most effective ways you can help make sure our democracy works as it should. Poll working is fun, nonpartisan, and you may even get paid! Do your part to ensure safe, free, and fair elections for all voters.
Sign up to work the polls this November and help make sure every voice can be heard.
