On Monday, January 31
st, 2022 your elected bargaining committee met with the membership virtually via zoom in attendance was also the Local 2002 leadership and National representative
Pearl Almeida.
The purpose of these meetings was to engage with the membership, provide details of the bargaining survey results and allow the membership to provide us with their feedback and input on what they would like to see negotiated into their next collective agreement. Thank you to the number of members that attended and participated in these important meetings. Membership solidarity will be the key to our bargaining success.
The bargaining committee will be meeting in person later this week to develop proposals and make final preparations as we head into the collective bargaining process. We will ensure to provide further communications once we have the confirmed dates with the company to officially open bargaining.
If you have not already done so, it is imperative during negotiations for Local 2002 to have a personal email address (Company email addresses not accepted) to communicate updates and provide confidential and time-sensitive information. Please provide your bargaining committee with your personal email address as soon as possible.
Bargaining updates will also be provided throughout negotiations and will be on the Unifor 2002 website. In addition, please ensure that you have subscribed at
unifor2002.org.
In solidarity,
Your Porter Airlines CSR Bargaining Committee
