At last month's Shop Steward Round Table, we discussed how to file a grievance and handle the grievance meeting with the employer. The grievance process is a hard-won right that provides a venue for handling workplace issues. But there are other ways to deal with problems. At this virtual SSRT, we'll share our experiences of using other venues like informal conversations with Human Resources and managers.

By developing an approach with an aggrieved member, you can help them solve problems early and to their satisfaction and show the employer that you and your co-workers are prepared to assert contractual rights.

Join our Virtual Round Table on the third Wednesday of every month!

Shop Stewards or members who are interested in becoming a YEU Shop Steward are invited to our 1.5 hour Zoom session. Each month, we take on a different topic: from human rights in the workplace to communication skills and everything in between. You can participate in union educational activities with no loss in pay. RSVP to let us know that you are coming and bring a co-worker!

The link to join in the Zoom session will be sent to you after you register. You can participate with any device, phone or desktop. 

Contact Lynne Pajot  lpajot@yeu.ca to find out this month's topic or to find out more about how you can get involved in making the union stronger.
