Mission:
The mission of the SEIU-West Young Workers Committee is to engage and unite young union members to become more active and knowledgeable in the labour movement.
Our goal is to mobilize young workers across Saskatchewan to become leaders and activists for social change within their unions and communities at large.
Through support, unity and encouragement, we help develop skills for young worker leadership today.
Composition:
Committee members must be members in good standing who have completed an "Expression of Interest" form within the appropriate deadline and following notice of the reconstitution of Committees. Committee members must also be aged 35 or under. Motion to formally appoint members to the Committee is the express authority of the SEIU-West Executive Board. The President or Designate is Ex-Officio to this Committee. The President or Designate will assign Staff resources to the Committee.
The Chairperson or Co-Chairpersons shall be a member of the Committee and appointed by the consensus of the Committee Members.
The Committee will consist of up to eight (8) members. The term will be the two years between SEIU-West Biennial Conventions.
Community Involvement:
Involvement from the Young Workers’ Committee in the community is a priority because it is an opportunity to meet the people we live with and work for. Unions have a strong relationship to their communities, and it is important to have Young Workers present. Our committee will strive to ensure a presence at both urban and rural solidarity events, such as: Labour Day events, Sidewalk Day festivals, and Homecomings.
We also get to show them that union members contribute to vibrant communities.
