HEU represents about 1,500 members who work in community social services. Our clients are some of the most marginalized citizens in the province and the sector has been buffeted by funding cuts and reorganization by government.
Our union negotiates as part of the multi-union Community Social Services Bargaining Association, which includes eight other unions representing workers in the sector.
Our agreement for members in this sector expired more than a year ago. Key demands include job security, improved language and work place rights. Check our bargaining bulletins for the latest information on bargaining.
Community Social Services Employers CSSBA represents 15,000 workers in 220 agencies across the province.
HEU’s bargaining team includes Marilynn Rust, David Huespe, and servicing representative Bob Wilson.
If you work in community social services, you're probably covered by this agreement. If you're not sure, please ask your local executive.
