Apply to CUPE's new regional trial panels
TO ALL CHARTERED ORGANISATIONS
Dear Sisters and Brothers:
We are seeking applications from our membership to serve on CUPE’s new regional trial panels.
At our last National Convention in October of 2019, delegates adopted a new trial procedure to deal with complaints and offences under the National Constitution. With this new procedure, trials will be conducted outside the local union, by three members from the region. These trial committees will be appointed by the National President, from a regional roster of trial panelists nominated by the National Executive Board. The new procedure and more info can be found at cupe.ca/trial-panelist-application.
If you are interested in being nominated to the roster of trial panelists for your region, apply before February 14, 2020.
We are looking for members who:
Are available on short notice to hear and decide cases
Have the capacity to listen and understand different perspectives
Have an understanding of human rights
Are comfortable explaining a decision in writing
