Janice Platzke Receives Larry Hubich Lifetime of Service Award

We are so excited to announce that your SEIU-West Treasurer, Janice Platzke, received the Larry Hubich Lifetime of Service Award at the 2024 Saskatchewan Federation of Labour Convention in late October. Congratulations, Janice!

Here's what her nominator had to say about Janice and her years of service:

Win of the Week! February 25 – March 3

An employer changed the schedule of a member in the posted and confirmed period. To resolve the grievance, the member received 48 hours at double time. What a win!

Win of the Week! February 11 – 17

A member has medical advice that they are not able to work in any occupation due to their disability. After ongoing stages of appeal processes to be approved under the Disability Income Plan, the member has finally been approved! This news will surely improve our member’s wellbeing and SEIU-West is proud to work alongside members who aim to achieve justice!

Save the dates! Telephone Town Hall

We’re excited to announce another round of live and interactive virtual town hall meetings for our health care sector members.

Your SEIU-West SAHO and Extendicare bargaining committees are inviting you to participate in this call so you can get the inside scoop on negotiations, ask your questions and take part in on-the spot poll questions that will help guide our continuing talks with your employers.

How do you get on the call? All you have to do is pick up your phone when we call just prior to the meeting time.

Make sure we have the right phone number on file! Use the sign up form or contact the MRC at 1-888-999-7348 ext. 2298 to ensure we have your preferred phone number on file. Please let us know by February 16, 2018 (after that time we cannot guarantee that new numbers will make it on the first dial out). 

Can’t make it or just want to get that nagging question off your mind? Send us your questions in advance. 

Save the date! The town hall calls are happening on the following dates and times:

  • Wednesday, February 21, 2018 at 7:00 pm
  • Thursday, February 22, 2018 at 2:00 pm.

Win of the Week! February 4 – 10

A member was denied Adoption Leave request documents by her Employer despite clearly qualifying based on her specific situation and her intent to adopt.  After extensive negotiation with her Employer, SEIU-West was able to secure the correct documents and she will be able to complete her application for leave. Great work!
