Introducing the EPL Bargaining Team

Posted on 7/3/2024

I'm pleased to share that the new EPL Bargaining Team will consist of Crystal Danylak from SCM in Shared Services and Bryce Jowett (CLV) and Alan Parish (WMC), both Library Assistants in Branch Services. Our team will be supported by Labour Relations Officers Brad Goertz and Noah Hutt. While Director of Labour Relations Joe Childs will continue to oversee our bargaining committee, Brad will take on the role of Chief Negotiator. Our first meeting will be on July 15 - more information on the upcoming round of bargaining will follow.

I'd like to thank all members who put their names forward in the Expression of Interest process; it is commendable that we have members willing to take these roles on and represent our members.

I'm also pleased to share that Becky Shepherd (WOO) is the newest member of our Labour Management Consultation Committee. As a Library Assistant and Shop Steward, Becky will be a great addition to our LMCC team.
