TEAM Annual General Meeting: TEAM’s AGM was held last week at the Fairmont Hotel in Winnipeg and virtually on Zoom. Thank you to the almost 200 members who joined us over their lunch hour to attend. For those who were unable to attend, the meeting presentation is available here. Additionally, if you are interested in watching a recording of the meeting, please contact the TEAM office for instructions on how to access the video. We’ve not made the recording public as it includes detailed information about our finances (this information has been removed from the linked presentation). Please let us know if you have questions on any of the topics presented or would like to view a copy of TEAM’s financial statement.
TEAM Board Election: TEAM will be holding an election to determine the office of President. The candidates, Dave Eyjolfson and Tobias Theobald, have been invited to provide a written campaign statement of not more than 100 words; submitted candidate statements, along with voting instructions, will be provided to members next week via email.
The vote will be conducted electronically by an independent accredited service and will be similar in format to our recent ratification vote. The window for voting will be 12:00 pm (noon), December 1st to 12:00 pm (noon), December 15th. For members currently active in the workplace, the ballot will be sent to your work email address; however, if you want your ballot sent to a personal (non-work) email address, please provide the alternate email address to the TEAM office before Monday, November 28th.
Retroactive Wage Increase and 1% Pensionable Lump Sum: TEAM has received confirmation from Bell that the pay increase, retroactive pay, and 1% pensionable lump sum payment will be on our December 9th pay.
