Representation

Supporting you every day

When a problem arises at work, it can be difficult to know where to turn. At the 800, our representation teams support workers through many aspects of their working lives with an approach that is human, accessible and grounded in real workplace realities.

Service overview

Being well represented means having someone you can count on, someone who understands your workplace, your reality and can support you when you need it.

Labor Relations support

Need help understanding your rights, your collective agreement or a decision made by your employer? Our teams can guide you, answer your questions and step in when needed.

Complaints and grievances

When a situation seems unfair or a right protected under the collective agreement is not respected, the union can review the case and pursue the appropriate recourse. Whether it involves disciplinary measures, wages, schedules or seniority issues, the 800’s teams support members every step of the way to ensure fair and rigorous representation.

Health and safety

Every worker has the right to a safe workplace. The 800 supports members on issues related to prevention, workplace injuries and situations that may put their health or safety at risk. Our teams can assist members with CNESST-related processes, intervene in concerning situations and help identify workplace hazards.

Harassment and workplace climate

No one should have to work in a toxic or disrespectful environment. When harassment or workplace conflict affects a member’s well-being, the 800 can provide confidential support, intervene with the employer and assist those involved throughout the process to help foster healthier and more respectful workplaces.

Collective bargaining and agreement renewal

Improvements to working conditions are built collectively. The 800 supports members and bargaining committees before, during and after the renewal of collective agreements. From preparing demands to implementing newly negotiated clauses, union teams work to defend workers’ interests and achieve meaningful gains in the workplace.
