Your Union in Action! \u2028<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week I had the privilege of representing you during a 2 day meeting in Vancouver to work and create a common strategic plan for all CUPE affiliated cabin crew unions across Canada. In attendance were the presidents of (left to right on the photo) Calm Air, Sunwing, WestJet, Westjet Encore, Swoop, Pascan Aviation, Air Transat, Flair, Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge.<\/p>\n

It is amazing to see the solidarity that is emerging among us at the airline division.\u00a0We are the next union group to negotiate our contract and I left this meeting confident that everyone will be with us when the time comes<\/strong>. More details on this project will follow in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

Here is the official press release:<\/p>\n

Presse release:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CUPE\u2019s Airline Division Component Presidents are meeting this week in Vancouver to discuss how to end the widespread industry use of unpaid labour. Flight attendants regularly perform hours of unpaid work every time they report for duty \u2013 a practice that must stop.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re a firefighter, a bank teller, an electrician, or almost any other profession in Canada, when you show up for work and perform work duties, you\u2019re on the clock and you\u2019re compensated for your time. For flight attendants in Canada, that simply isn\u2019t the case,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said Wesley Lesosky, President of the Airline Division.\u00a0\u201cFlight attendants deserve to be paid for hours worked, and we\u2019re going to step up this fight to make sure they are.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Although there are variations at each airline, generally speaking, most flight attendants in Canada are at work, in uniform, performing work-related duties long before they start \u2013 and long after they stop \u2013 getting paid.\u00a0It is estimated that between 20 and 50 per cent of a Canadian flight attendant\u2019s time at work is unpaid.<\/strong>\u00a0Unpaid work may include things like prepping aircraft, boarding and deplaning passengers, gate duties, and safety-related duties.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The division presidents have been meeting this week to put plans in place to present a strong and united front across CUPE\u2019s ten different airline groups, and raise public awareness and mobilize members to end this unfair and exploitive practice<\/strong>.\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is a totally unacceptable industry practice that only exists because nobody knows about it,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Rena Kisfalvi, Secretary-Treasurer of the Division. \u201cThat is about to change.\u201d<\/p>\n

CUPE\u2019s Airline Division represents approximately 18,500 flight attendants working at ten different airlines in Canada.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Solidarity,<\/p>\n

Dominic Levasseur<\/p>\n

Your Component\u00a0President<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Temporary changes to our hotels in Ottawa and Montr\u00e9al downtown.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

YOW<\/strong><\/p>\n

We wish to inform you that following a fire at our crew hotel in Ottawa, the Marriott, our crews will be relocated to the Delta Marriott, 2 min walk from the Marriott.<\/p>\n

Equivalent quality. The relocation will be for the month of December. To be followed.<\/p>\n

YUL<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to protect our crews during the COP 15 near our crew hotel in downtown Montreal, it is possible that you will be relocated during your 20H+ layovers in YUL between December 7th and 19th. We have done our investigation and these relocations are also in place for our colleagues at AC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
