Supervisors in the Union Workshop

Date:  December 2-3, 2024
Time: 9am to 4:30pm PST, one hour for lunch
Location: Virtual via Zoom

Supervisors were some of the founding members of HSA when the union was first organized, and HSA is unique in terms of the number of supervisors who are included in the union. This workshop is for HSA supervisors who want to learn more about their role as a member and as a supervisor in the workplace. Day two will cover the supervisor role in Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) investigations, taught by a BC Federation of Labour facilitator.

This workshop is open to HSA members employed in roles with regular ongoing responsibilities supervising other union members. Space is limited, and priority will be given to supervisors who have not previously taken the workshop. This workshop will be offered four times in 2024.

Quotes from the May 2024 participants:

“I appreciated the union side perspective. All too often as supervisors we only hear or receive direction from managers who are not HSA members.”

“The information was very useful and the knowledge builds my confidence in doing my job in a unionized environment.”

Participants will receive wage replacement and pre-approved dependent care costs for virtual workshops in accordance with HSA Policy.
