CUPE Local 441 has been on strike since October 28, with strong community support from the public, including parents and teachers.
When: | Friday, November 15 at 10:45 a.m. |
Where: | Brentwood Elementary School |
Who: | CUPE National President Mark Hancock will be meeting with members on the picket line and be available for media afterwards. |
At issue is wage parity and the District's ability to attract and retain support workers. CUPE 441 members are paid below those doing the same work in neighbouring communities of Sooke and Victoria. CUPE 441 is concerned with this longstanding issue that negatively impacts both members and students.
