The health and safety of our members and staff is critically important to the Hospital Employees’ Union. Every day we fight for better health and safety conditions in the workplace, at the bargaining table, with WCB and the government.
The COVID-19 pandemic added another significant layer of health and safety challenges for our members.
HEU’s first in-person convention following the start of the pandemic is an opportunity for us to show that better is possible. With influenza season upon us, and the airborne transmission of COVID-19, HEU carefully considered the health and safety of our delegates and staff in our event planning.
We believe our approach reflects a high-standard of prevention and response strategies for communicable disease, while maintaining an engaging in-person convention experience. Thank you for working with us to achieve the healthiest and safest convention for everyone.
For full details on protocols before and during convention, as well as prevention measures, please read our protocols document below.
