Dear Stewards,<\/p>\n\n

While our in person Steward Council has been cancelled for 2020, the Regions have been encouraged to implement virtual and on-line activities that would replace elements of the Steward Council.<\/p>\n\n

In the Prairie\/NWT Region we will be offering 4 topics with multiple sessions during October and November via Zoom.  Each session is 1 hour in length. These sessions are open to all stewards in the Region. All times are MST.<\/p>\n\n

Registration<\/a> is now open. Provide your full name, your member number, and your preferred email address.  Space is limited in each session so please indicate which session you prefer and if you are available for other sessions.  The Zoom link will be provided to your preferred email address when your registration is confirmed. Please notify us if you are unable to attend and need to cancel.<\/a><\/p>\n\n

Topic #1 – Covid in the Workplace<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Kris Hawkins, Manager, Prairie\/NWT Region will open each session with what actions have been taken by PIPSC and some key information on COVID-19 and the workplace as we move forward. Kris was part of PIPSC Covid- 19 Rapid Response Team.   PIPSC COVID-19 Rapid Response Team was created to facilitate top level consultation, delivery of crucial information, negotiation on issues of pressing need for our members and to ensure that we were proactive in reacting to the crisis situation as it unfolded. After the opening, we\u2019ll be discussing key questions received from members since the onset of the pandemic. <\/p>\n\n

Topic #4 – Toolbox for Supporting Members during COVID <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n

COVID-19 has changed the work routines of our members. Many departments and agencies have transitioned to a remote workforce. While there are many benefits, remote work has also created a significant impact to the human aspect of how we interact and communicate with others.<\/p>\n\n

As stewards you are an important link to serving our members. Leadership coach and consultant, Christina Nikiforuk will discuss how as union leaders we can best support members working remotely. <\/p>\n\n

Session #1 \u2013 Thursday, November 19 at 10:00am<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Session #2 \u2013 Thursday, November 19 at 1:00pm<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Attendance will be taken at each session and compensatory salary will be available for participants in accordance with the Policy on Financial Support for Member Participation. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n

After each topic, participant\u2019s names will be placed into a draw for a special PIPSC 100th<\/sup> Anniversary gift basket, which includes a $100 Amazon Gift card. <\/p>\n\n
