On Saturday Jan. 21, 2017 there were votes on whether to extend our current collective agreement for another two years. The contract was gone over and questions were answered.
Members of CUPE 1479 voted in favour of extending the current collective agreement with the new extension agreement items. Unit 1 voted in favour of the extension and Unit 2 voted in favour.
For the very first time we tried a meeting via a Skype location. Bancroft residents were able to view the meeting and cast their votes from Our Lady of Mercy. We will be exploring other ways to incorporate this into our membership meetings.
Thank you to all the members who came out to vote! Hopefully we will see that many at the next membership meeting in March! Come out and bring another CUPE member!
