Please participate in Survey from National Safe Union Spaces Working Group Soon

Posted on by

Sisters, Brothers, and Friends,

The National Safe Union Spaces Working Group survey closes in one week. We thank those of you who have already participated.

In order to fight gender-based violence and other forms of harassment and discrimination in our union, we need to hear from as many diverse voices as possible.

We strongly encourage those of you who have not already done so to participate in this survey, and to share it widely in your CUPE networks, including social media. Your active participation in the distribution of this survey will be key to the project’s success.

In solidarity,

The National Safe Union Spaces Working Group
