Earth Day is around the corner, April 22nd, and we are marking it with a critical webinar on extreme heat. "Heating Up: Special Earth Day Webinar" is scheduled for April 22nd from 7:30-8:30 PM EST/4:30-5:30 PM PST. The webinar will cover what to expect this summer across North America, how to protect yourself and those around you, and what your rights are at work.
The rally that had been planned for September 23 with the Saskatchewan Health Coalition has been postponed. Because of the interest from many people, it will be rescheduled to allow for more participation.
However, we want you to be prepared. So we are launching a picket sign slogan contest on the theme of public services!
Your slogan can be about general public services or something more specific like health care, education, community-based services, or social services.
Send your public service slogan suggestions to [email protected]. Prizes include a custom-knit SEIU-West scarf and toque set and gift cards.
Deadline to enter is 5:00pm September 30, 2023 to be eligible to win.

Over 100 workers at Saskatoon’s Prairie Harm Reduction (PHR) were laid off as of 5 p.m. Thursday, April 9. This included 76 SEIU-West members in youth group homes, family support services, and PHR’s education department, who were preparing to negotiate their first collective agreement with PHR.
