National Strike Fund: forms and process

CUPE’s National Strike Fund ensures that every CUPE member and local – whether on strike or locked out, or facing a strike or lock out – has the union’s full backing. The Fund provides strike pay as well as funding for campaigns to pressure employers to avert or end a strike or lock out. Download the forms.

National strike fund forms

Every effort has been made to keep these forms to a minimum and, at the same time, provide the information that is necessary to audit the books at the conclusion of each strike. It is also to provide full information on strike costs to everyone who pays into the National Strike Fund. Download all the forms here.

CUPE Constitution

The CUPE National Constitution as amended at the 2025 National Convention.
