The union executive, which varies between unions, is provided for in the union constitution. This statement is correct as the organizational structure of unions typically includes an executive committee, which is responsible for day-to-day operations and decision making. The specific makeup and roles of the executive committee are outlined in the union's constitution. The other statements are incorrect as operational matters are not necessarily dealt with at the union convention (A), the Canadian Labour Congress is a national federation of unions and does not dictate officer requirements for individual unions (B), the convention is not called by the union executive but instead is typically held at regular intervals (C), and officers may serve terms longer than one year (E).
