These instructions are now out of date due to the move to CallSteward v3.  It is similar but the user interface appears very different now.

These instructions were adapted with permission from IATSE Local 23’s website, and the screenshots refer to their call steward pages, but will operate identical to Local 205’s.

We are currently incorporating the Call Steward system into the Hiring Hall call-in and crewing methods.  For the integration phase however, the best method for requesting work is still to call-in every monday to the Hiring Hall at (512) 371-1217, or send an email to .

Questions or comments about Call Steward should be directed to the Assistant BA, .

Here is how to use the “Call Steward” system.

When you go to any of these website addresses…

• http://callsteward.iatse205.org
• http://cs.iatse205.org
• http://ialocal205.callsteward.com

… (these will open in a new tab or window), you will see this screen, prompting you to enter your login info that you were given by Local 205.

(these are screenshots, not active, if you click on them what you will get is a larger graphic)

After you have  entered your login info, you will see this screen:
