December 18 was International Migrants Day and to celebrate, Multicultural Mentorship Committee had a contest!
Csilla shared her story with us here:
When Csilla first came here, she was scared and lost. She didn't speak any English. She had to ask for help for everything that she needed to do, like rent a place to live, buy furniture, and find a job.
Finding a job was the key for Csilla's success. She found work in a place where no one spoke any language but English, so she had to learn quickly. After every shift, she went home with at least five new English words that she learned.
Welcome to Canada Csilla! We are proud to have you as a member of SEIU-West!
April 28 is National Day of Mourning, a day held each year dedicated to remembering workers who have lost their lives on the job or been stricken by job-related illnesses. It also reminds us that improving workplace health and safety is an ongoing struggle.
