As you know, your existing Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on October 31, 2022. We have already begun to prepare for negotiations to bargain a new Agreement on your behalf. Part of the preparation process is to obtain your ideas about what improvements should be negotiated into it. As such, we will be hosting a proposal meeting for you to attend so we can obtain those ideas from you and use them to draft our official proposals to present to your employer once negotiations begin. The date, time and location of the meeting is as follows:
Date: October 2, 2022
Time: 11:00 AM
Location: Holiday Inn – Winnipeg South
1330 Pembina Hwy
If you are interested in putting your name forward for being on the bargaining committee, please email me or call me with your name, your classification and what shift you are on.
Please note you will have until September 27th at 4:00 pm to provide your information to me to have your name on the ballot as we will be holding a vote at the meeting to elect your bargaining committee.
Should you have any questions or concerns or if you cannot attend this meeting to give us proposals you would like to see in your next collective agreement, please email me at blake.crothers@ufcw832.com
In solidarity,
Blake Crothers,
Union Negotiator
