To ALL CUPE Local 104 Members,
Bargaining update:
The bargaining sessions with the employer that were held September 13-14-15 and October 12-13-14 went well. Things are still progressing well.
Over the past two weeks, the bargaining team has been working on preparing for our next session with the employer scheduled for the week of November 6. This Friday, the team is meeting to finish up these preparations.
Please remember that once we have reached a tentative agreement, it is you – the membership – who ultimately decide whether to accept the agreement.
It is especially important that all of us show solidarity with each other throughout the bargaining process. The stronger we are as a Local, the stronger our position is at the bargaining table. Please keep supporting each other, your stewards, and your executive. We are getting closer.
Please continue to reach out directly to your Stewards or Regional Chairpersons if you have questions or concerns.
UPCOMING TOWN HALL:
We will be holding another virtual town hall on 2022-11-23 at 18h00 Eastern Time to provide a verbal update on bargaining and answer your questions. Initially, we were going to try and have a town hall after the last bargaining session however, we heard from many of you that we should give more advanced notice and hopefully we will have more to update on after this upcoming session.
We will send out joining instructions to all CUPE 104 members who have provided us their personal email addresses closer to the town hall.
If your colleagues did not receive this email then they are not on the list and they must go to www.cupe104.ca and fill out the “MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION FORM”.
Save the date: 2022-11-23 at 18H00 Eastern Time.
In Solidarity,
Your CUPE 104 executive
Kathleen, Robbin, Myles, Robb, Cyrus, Marc-Étienne, Alex, Brandon, Randy and Ron.
