Bookoff is provided for those who would like to attend but are working. Tell your supervisor that the Union Executive has requested that Shop Stewards attend a meeting to become better acquainted with your role in the Union. The Supervisor can then replace your shift (if possible) – full replacement and you get paid for attending. When you have alerted your supervisor, please fill out the form Request for Union Leave from the Forms page then e-mail info@cupe391.ca or fax (604-879-3034) to the Union office. We sign the form and forwrd it to Human Resources. We will feed you will, beverages too and baby-sitting is covered upon presentation of receipts. Please come – we need your strength and knowledge to build a stronger organisation. There is room in the CUPE 15 parking lot that evening (in the alley). If further parking is required, we will honour parking receipts.
