Mitigation of Discipline and Accommodation Clinic/Bootcamp
le 26 (9 h) au 30 mai 2025 (11 h 30)
Pre-requisite: Introduction to Stewarding. Join Mira Lewis, Human Rights Representative, and Andrew Restall, Legal and Legislative Representative, in an intensive bootcamp that will work on two areas of work with your union: namely disciplinary mitigation and accommodations. Part one of this summer school stream of work is the union’s strategic use of “mitigating” circumstances – whether in discipline, grievance, or arbitration. The standards for mitigation will be considered and analyzed with a view to making them accessible, clear, and useful. Mitigation brings focus to those characteristics and circumstances, around a grievance or grievor, that can reduce or eliminate discipline. Knowledge of it is an essential element of grievance handling and having grievance meetings with an employer. The Duty to Accommodate will be examined, and accommodations, both successful and flawed, will be reviewed.
Communications - When You Have Something to Say or Have to Say Something
le 26 (9 h) au 30 mai 2025 (11 h 30)
Communications Representative Tria Donaldson, and Research Representative Katherine Norton will facilitate workshops aimed at improving your verbal communications, maximizing your chance of speaking in public and actually making sense! Being required to provide quick responses based on reasoned thought and preparedness while still being clear and understood is one of our greatest fears. Presenting a knowledgeable and relaxed exterior while “speaking off the cuff” will be workshopped in various contexts, including media interviews speaking at a rally, meeting with your employer, and meeting with the government.
Fundamentals of Labour Law
le 26 (9 h) au 30 mai 2025 (11 h 30)
Pre-requisite: Introduction to Stewarding. In this workshop, participants will learn the fundamentals of labour law as they apply to unionized workplaces in Saskatchewan. Topics will include what locals and activists need to know about The Saskatchewan Employment Act, the union and employer’s duty to accommodate, and the duty of fair representation. Law, case decisions, and other jurisprudence will be discussed and reviewed, so participants can begin to understand more deeply their roles in the union legal framework and landscape.
