The PSAC Regional Offices would like to invite you to participate in an Education Forum to better understand your education needs and hopes for Fall 2020.   Covid #19 has brought about many changes in our lives – how we work, engage with others, and our union activists.  Prairies PSAC staff have been very busy with helping members through numerous challenges during these times by providing Health and Safety information, helping members adjust to new worksite realities and work from home.

When the pandemic response first started, the PSAC-Prairies regional offices were disppointed that we had to cancel all our in-person meetings and events. Connecting in person is a big part of how PSAC operates but we have tried to make the best out of it by conducting weekly webinars on topics that will assist members through this difficult time.  We are currently taking a break from our weekly webinars for the summer. Please check back in the fall for future educational opportunites. View the webinar recordings:

Federal Public Service workers have always been committed to showing up for Canadians. In these difficult times, that hasn’t changed. The contributions and value of the public service and public service workers have only become more apparent.  However, from Paul Samyn’s Monday night COVID-19 email introduction, readers might get the impression that workers at Service Canada were on vacation while Canadians can’t get access to the vital services that they need. Nothing could be further from the truth. 

You may not have heard about it, but this week is National Public Service Week. Every year for one week,  the federal government  celebrates its more than 300,000 employees. It usually comes and goes without too much fanfare, but this year should be different.  All Canadians should be encouraged to recognize the public sector workers helping our country weather the brutal impacts of COVID-19. 

Have you ever wondered if there was another way to resolve a workplace issue besides a formal grievance? Learn what situations may benefit from conflict resolution, understand the steps that need to be taken and who needs to be involved for the best outcomes.  View the recording for Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanisms Webinar Preventing a Grievance: Strategies for Early Conflict Resolution. Please find the presentation slides attached below.
