Job security, pensions, workload, wages and bullying/harassment were key priorities raised in three virtual town-hall meetings held on January 7, 8 and 9.
Thank you to all those who were able to take part. Your feedback and involvement make us stronger. Your responses will inform the negotiations team as we work to get the best possible collective agreement.
An email survey was sent out to help us gather more information on your priorities. That survey has now closed and we are now evaluating the results.
Please stay tuned to the website and your emails for updates. Also, please ensure we have the correct contact information for you by going to www.aupe.org/updateinfo.
