What’s a Blawg? A Blawg is an online journal or blog dealing with topics related to the law.

This Blawg will contain posts with tidbits of legal info you might find useful in your toolbox for building worker power within OPSEU/SEFPO. Various staff in the Contract Enforcement Division will contribute posts on useful cases and topics. The format will be posts, not a textbook nor comprehensive — rather, a way to share sparks of knowledge you can use while organizing, bargaining, and enforcing workers’ rights.

The Contract Enforcement Division of OPSEU/SEFPO includes the Arbitrations Unit, the Pension and Benefits Unit, and the Worker Safety Unit.

If you have specific questions about contract enforcement issues in your workplace, please speak with your coworkers, steward, local president or connect with OPSEU/SEFPO staff.
