To become a SEAC member, you must be a salaried employee in a workplace where SEAC has bargaining rights. Contact your local representative or our membership department for specific eligibility requirements.
Membership fees are typically 1.5% of your gross salary, deducted automatically from your paycheck. This covers all union services, legal support, and member benefits.
In most provinces, membership is mandatory for employees in bargaining units. However, specific rules vary by province and workplace. Contact us for information about your specific situation.
A grievance is a formal complaint filed when you believe your employer has violated the collective agreement, workplace policies, or your rights as an employee.
Contact your union representative within the time limits specified in your collective agreement (usually 10-30 days). They will help you complete the grievance form and guide you through the process.
The grievance process typically involves several steps: informal discussion, formal grievance, mediation, and potentially arbitration. Your representative will advocate for you throughout the process.
