Supervisors in the Union
HSA is offering three one-day workshops this Fall:
Dates:
Thursday, June 5 (Kelowna ... Coast Capri Hotel)
Tuesday, June 10 (Prince George ... Coast Inn of the North)
Thursday, June 12 (Vancouver ... HSA Office)
HSA members who work in a supervisory role will have the opportunity to attend a one-day workshop in either Kelowna, Prince George, or in Vancouver at the HSA office.
Supervisors have particular concerns and needs and sometimes feel -caught in the middle". One of the goals of the "Supervisors in the Union" workshop is to resolve apparent conflicts and clear the lines of communication between supervisors, stewards and HSA in order to improve working relationships.
Topics on the agenda include handling grievances, dealing with conflict of interest, evaluations, discipline, WCB, dealing with employees returning to work from WCB or LTD leave, and an open forum for questions.
Supervisors who are HSA members are eligible to attend. As space permits, stewards may apply to attend along with supervisors from their facility. HSA will reimburse transportation costs (on the basis of mileage or most economical airfare), shared hotel accommodation costs, meal costs, dependant care (reimbursed where necessary to enable members to attend the workshop) and wage replacement, according to HSA policy.
Please fax your completed application to the HSA office, as soon as possible or by the deadline.
