400 employees of Simaril, a non-profit organization providing support services for individuals with physical, intellectual, and mental health disabilities have joined CUPE.
“We want to welcome these 400 new members to the CUPE family,” said Gina McKay, President of CUPE Manitoba. “I am proud they chose CUPE and look forward to supporting them as they begin to negotiate their first collective agreement.”
On Friday, October 3, the Manitoba Labour Board approved the workers’ application for certification.
