Am I allowed time off to attend the information meetings and vote?

The City does not provide time off for employees to attend the information meetings, but is flexible in allowing employees time to vote on June 29.  Please remember to let your supervisor know about your intentions to go and vote.  You should also try to incorporate your time away into break periods, or where feasible, vote either before, or after your regular workday.  Your cooperation to the above is greatly appreciated.

Copies of the MOA and Tentative Agreement Highlights available on June 28

Copies of the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and Tentative Agreement Highlights will be available after 9:00 a.m. on June 28. 

There are a number of ways to receive a copy:

• At the membership information sessions or at the vote
• At the Local 500 office, 7^th Floor, 275 Broadway
• On the Local 500 website at cupe500.mb.ca

Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Local 500 office at 204-942-1001.

In solidarity, 

Your Negotiating Committee
