All CUPE 389 Stewards who have not taken Introduction to Stewarding are asked to attend training that has been arranged for you on Oct 19 and 20th at the CUPE National regional office in Burnaby.
You will receive a book off from your regular job and this training is mandatory if you wish to continue as a steward.
Due to COVID, we have not been able to hold training for the past two years. It takes a lot of logistics to organize this training and arrange for the book-offs with the Employers. Office staff have tried to reach several stewards and have received no reply. Please contact the office as soon as possible if you have not already registered, and if you do not wish to take the training and therefore continue as a steward, we would love to have you stay on as a Communicator, but we need you to let us know so we can keep an accurate list. Unfortunately, if we have anyone not responding, your name will be taken off our list of Shop Stewards.
Thank you,
CUPE 389 Education Committee
