Representing Members With Mental Health Issues - Winnipeg

This is a one day course and is being offered for the first time out of the Winnipeg RO.  The course is designed to expand our understanding of the concepts of mental health, how mental health issues impact our workplaces, and the challenges stewards face when representing members experiencing mental health issues.  We will review and learn from actual cases, as they have gone through the grievance and adjudication process.  We will also review the union’s duty to represent members, and the employer’s duty to accommodate responsibilities.
