Domestic Violence Workshop 2024

Domestic Violence Workshop - Application

This course is designed to train Shop Stewards, Occupational Health and Safety Committee members and Unit Executive members to be able to respond to members who may be experiencing domestic violence. The two-day course will take place in our Saskatoon SEIU-West office on November 5 and 6, 2024.

SEIU-West will cover the costs of 25 participants who will be selected with the goal of wide representation from all Units within our SEIU-West membership. Expenses will be reimbursed to a maximum of two days lost wages/honorarium. Meals and accommodations will be provided, and mileage will be reimbursed according to our policies.

You must apply by September 24, 2024 and you be notified whether you’re accepted to attend in order to book union leave.
Note: Carpooling is mandatory. After the application deadline, those who are selected to attend will be sent a confirmation with more details about the event.

We’d love to have you attend our course, but if you indicated that you are on Short-Term Disability or Workers Compensation, it’s risky for members to attend. If you don’t claim the income from coming to the conference correctly, they may charge you with fraud and cause you to never qualify for either WCB or DIP again. You also need to ensure that attending this course fits within your abilities and is approved by your Disability Worker, etc. 
How would you like to proceed?
Thank you. Take care.
