Please attend during non-work time (before or after your shift and/or on a break) to find out important information that will affect your working conditions.
Background
Lee Caring Society nursing care employees at HolSome Place became members of AUPE, as a result of a settlement following proceedings through the Alberta Labour Relations Board. The result was HolSome Place would be considered a separate bargaining unit which will need to negotiate its own first collective agreement.
Although there is no formal collective bargaining agreement in place at HolSome Place, nursing care employees are entitled to union representation, including during meetings with your employer especially if there is any possibility of discipline. If you have any concerns related to employment, please contact AUPE at 1-800-232-7284 or contact Membership Services Officer Guy Quenneville at g.quenneville@aupe.org.
Next steps
HolSome Place members will hold an inaugural Annual General Meeting to elect representatives to manage the affairs of the HolSome Place AUPE chapter, including electing bargaining representatives.
Once members from HolSome Place have held their elections, they will join fellow members from ECCC to begin bargaining new collective agreements at both sites.
We look forward to meeting you on Dec.12, 13 and 14 and starting to learn about what improvements you would like to work towards, providing more information about AUPE and welcoming HolSome members into the union.
