In this episode of In the Jumpseat, a podcast by CUPE Local 8125, WestJet Component, Cameron and Alia provide a high level overview of the Bargaining Priorities Townhalls held this fall across Calgary, Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Montreal. This episode is intended to give a clear summary of the information shared during the in-person sessions for members who were unable to attend.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

How CUPE 8125 prepared for bargaining by researching industry standards and reviewing collective agreements.

• The top four priorities identified by members: Wages and Compensation, Scheduling and Rest, Allowances and Hotels, and Benefits and Health Coverage.
• Additional focus areas including Health and Safety, Training, Retirement, and new committees such as Service and Professional Standards.
• What comes next in the bargaining timeline, from serving Notice to Bargain to entering active negotiations.

Stay informed. Stay engaged. Stay united.
Your voices shaped our mandate, and together, we are stronger at the table.
