COPE491 is starting a campaign regarding Hours of Work. Soon you will
be receiving buttons to wear at work to stand in support of members who
feel pressured to work through lunch hours and work in excess of 6 hours
with no overtime as per our collective agreement.
We work 6 hours a day. We have 1 hour for lunch. We should not
have to take calls or direction during our lunch hour. We should not be
working more than 6 hours a day without being paid for overtime.
These issues may not affect you or your workplace, but we want everyone
to wear the buttons to show our support and solidarity with our sisters
and brothers across the country who are faced with these issues.
If you have any questions or concerns with this, please contact your RVP.
In Solidarity,
COPE491 Executive
