You asked and we listened! Registration for Virtual Worker Safety Engagement Tour is now open. We will be available on April 8 at 12pm – 2pm or 6pm – 8pm.
The Worker Safety Engagement Tour aims to introduce a boost of energy, bring information, and support the work of the Union, by providing more resources and personal interaction in the vital areas of Health and Safety, WSIB benefits (Workplace Safety and Insurance Board), Pensions and Insured Benefits closer to OPSEU/SEFPO members – WHERE THEY WORK AND LIVE.
The Worker Safety Engagement Tour will be bringing a team of three (3) of our very own expert OPSEU/SEFPO staff from the Health and Safety, Pensions & Benefits, and WSIB units to meet and greet members from ALL SECTORS.
This is going to be an interactive event. There are NO pre-planned presentations, instead members are invited to drop in anytime during the 2-hour window, ask their questions of the OPSEU/SEFPO expert(s), listen to other member’s questions and the answers, and leave the meeting at any time. Questions about specific cases may not be able to be addressed during this event, particularly if it deals with personal and confidential information. Should you want to discuss personal or confidential information you can contact [email protected] to discuss either before or after the event.
Members are encouraged to come out to discuss any related topic you want.
For example:
- How to fire up your Local Joint Health and Safety Committee
- How does the right to refuse unsafe work operate in a particular job
- How to navigate or negotiate on pensions
- How to help members when a Long-Term Disability claim is denied or cut off
- What do I do if a WSIB claim is denied
Please register for either the 12pm – 2pm window (Register here) or the 6pm-8pm window (Register here). Spots are limited.
We look forward to seeing all who are able to attend.
