CUPE Local 5524 ratified in early 2023. Over the past year, we’ve been working diligently to foster capacity and solidarity within our new Local. In the past year we have:
- Attended the 2023 CUPE National Convention and the CUPE Ontario 2024 University Workers Coordinating Committee (OUWCC) Conference,
- Connected with other CUPE Locals in the academic sector across Ontario,
- Connected with non-CUPE Local in the academic sector across Ontario,
- Connected with other CUPE Locals at the University of Waterloo,
- Held multiple General Members Meetings,
- Secured physical and bureaucratic operating necessities (i.e., an on-campus office, this website, and a bank account),
- Began to develop multiple Committees,
- And much more!
We look forward to providing you with more regular communication and information now that our website is up and operational.
In solidarity,
CUPE Local 5524 Executive Committee
