Course Description:

This Friday night and Saturday course is for any member who would like to know more about safe and healthy workplaces.  Participants will learn about the roles and responsibilities of workers, employers and unions, and discover the important events in the union’s struggle for health and safety in our workplaces.

We will also highlight the changes to Part ll of the Canada Labour Code resulting from the enactment of Bill C-4. We will work towards understanding the political context from which Bill C-4 emerged, and determine the implication of the changes to the health and safety on workers, workplace committees and on unions.  We will explore ways that PSAC members can exercise their health and safety rights, and make plans to bring ideas and information back to the Local Union at the workplace.

Application Deadline: October 15th, 2014
