Solidarity with Indigenous Workers; SLS-Duty of Fair Representation and Creating Accommodation-friendly workplaces

SLS - Literacy awareness
Dec 11, 2024 (9:00am-12:00pm (Eastern))

Literacy affects all of us at work. Learning new computer programs, understanding collective agreements, completing forms, or writing reports can all pose barriers for our members. Learn about how stewards can increase literacy awareness, and help make the union inclusive and accessible to members.

SLS - Duty of fair representation
Dec 11, 2024 (1:00pm-4:00pm (Eastern))

Learn about where stewards get their authority in the workplace, the duty of fair representation, and other labour laws that cover the workplace. NOTE: Please bring your Steward Handbook to the workshop.

SLS - Creating accommodation-friendly workplaces
Dec 12, 2024 (9:00am-12:00pm (Eastern))

Learn the legal framework for the duty to accommodate, what a good accommodation process and plan look like, and what to do if the employer is not willing to provide reasonable accommodation. NOTE: Please bring your Steward Handbook to the workshop.

In response to the health concerns of our members and staff, CUPE has implemented a Scent-Free Policy at all of our workshops. Scented products such as hair spray, perfume and deodorant can trigger reactions such as respiratory distress and headaches. Facilitators and participants are asked to refrain from using scented products while attending our workshops and meetings. Thank you for your cooperation.
