Ontario School Board Council of Unions (OSBCU) Bargaining Survey for School Board Workers
Ontario School Board Council of Unions (OSBCU) Bargaining Survey for School Board Workers:
Central Collective Agreement negotiations, 2019
To all presidents of CUPE school board locals in Ontario
The Ontario School Board Council of Unions (OSBCU) bargaining committee is in the process of developing bargaining priorities for the next round of central bargaining. Part of that process involves sending a bargaining survey to members to find out their priorities. The survey is being designed to make it possible to segregate information for each local so that locals will have information about their members responses.
The survey can be submitted electronically at https://surveys.cupe.ca/index.php/344419?lang=en.
We recognize that not all members will be able to submit the survey online, therefore we are also providing you with printable version of the survey that you can make available to your members.
For those members who choose not to submit the survey online, we ask you scan paper copies to lizjamescupe1479@gmail.com
Please submit responses to this survey no later than Monday, June 25, 2018.
Once all surveys are collected the OSBCU bargaining committee will analyse the responses to help develop a draft working document of bargaining priorities. Per the OSBCU by-laws, that working document will be shared with locals in September (2 months prior to the Bargaining Conference). Once we receive feedback from locals on that draft working document we will revise it for presentation at the Bargaining Conference (November 3-4, 2018).
In solidarity,
OSBCU Bargaining Committee
