As per the CUPE 5555 By-laws, our regular membership meetings are to take place the first Saturday in October, February and June. Meetings take place virtually through Zoom. Members will get an email a few weeks prior to the meeting to sign up. You’ll need your union card number to sign up. If you don’t have a union card yet, you can submit an application here.
Occasionally, we may have Special Membership Meetings based on various things that come up. These often happen around staffing, bargaining, etc.

WHAT HAPPENS AT A GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING ?
General membership meetings are important in that; decisions are made that can directly involve you the member, and are made based on the attendance to each meeting. If attendance is low, it can mean that decisions involving how your membership dues are spent are decided by a select few.
Up to date information is provided at all meetings in regards to the day to day business of the local, what is happening in the work place and detailed financial statements. It is also a great place to ask questions!
Our General membership meetings are virtual through Zoom. This shift to virtual meetings was voted on by the membership at a GMM. Meetings take place the first Saturday of October, February and June.
To receive the private link to a general membership meeting, you must provide a valid CUPE 5555 union membership card number and your employee number that will be verified by the President.
