Virtual bargaining town hall to be held Aug. 28th at 6p.m.

You are invited to attend a virtual Bargaining Town Hall on August 28, 6-7:30pm, on Zoom. Advance registration is required. Here is the link to complete your registration: https://opseu-org.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_-7j8QQfvTpGWrq9JM73E4g 

Our current collective agreement expires on September 30, 2024, and our next scheduled bargaining dates with the employer are September 9-10. Since the goal is a negotiated, on-time, renewal agreement, we must now raise awareness about our democratic demands and proposals currently on the bargaining table. The goal of this Town Hall is to build awareness and engagement in the bargaining process.

Remember: bargaining only happens every few years, and the Workload Taskforce Report will soon be released. Data from that report supports our decade long claims that workload is increasing, and inadequately captured on our workloads. Now is the time to improve our working conditions.

Here is the Bargaining Town Hall Agenda:

Agenda

6-6:10pm – Welcome, Statement of Respect, Land Acknowledgement

6:10-7pm – Presentation

7-7:30pm – Question &  Answer Period
 

The Bargaining Presentation portion of the webinar will include:

  • A bargaining summary from July, 
  • Updates on the Workload Taskforce Report release, 

Preparations for our Day of Action on September 9

  • Local organizing and preparedness for any labour action

A Question & Answer period will follow the Bargaining Presentation. Your voice is encouraged.
