A number of nominations have been received for the position of Bargaining Committee Chair and one Bargaining Committee Member resulting in the need to conduct elections to determine who will sit on the committee when talks begin to negotiate a renewal of your collective agreement.
The first step in the election process is to determine who will occupy the important position of Bargaining Unit Chair. Four members have accepted nomination for this position.
Nominated for the position of Bargaining Unit Chair:
- Richard Stanley
- Doaa El Ezaby
- Issar Shojaee
- Don Bury
Balloting packages are being mailed to all members for whom the Union has current mailing addresses.
Mark your ballot clearly and place it inside the small brown coin envelope. Any ballot with more than one person selected will be considered to be spoiled and not counted. Place the coin envelope in the declaration ballot envelope and seal it. Fill out the information on the declaration ballot envelope and return it to the Union in the enclosed self-addressed postage paid envelope.
Your ballot must be received at our office no later than Friday, September 30th, 2016 at 5:00 p.m.
Once a person has been confirmed as a member of the Union, the coin envelopes will a be removed from the declaration ballots. Only when all coin envelopes have been removed will they be opened and counted. This is to ensure that your vote remains confidential and no one can tell how you voted.
If you do not receive a ballot through the mail, this likely means that we do not have your mailing address on file. In situations like this, you will need to contact your BCGEU area office to obtain a ballot.
To help ensure you receive a copy of bargaining updates please provide a personal email address to the BCGEU at: http://www.bcgeu.ca/email. If we already have an email address on file for you and you wish to edit or update any of your existing contact information, please send an email to: http://www.bcgeu.ca/change_of_address.
Once a Bargaining Unit Chair has been elected, another election will take place to determine the one member who will sit with the Chair on the committee. Full details of that election will be forthcoming.
