The modern workplace is a complex arena that presents both local and global challenges. The PPWC Local 1 executive has and will continue to promote the long term success of our business, environmental issues, sustainability of our natural resources, and community concerns.
With the continued support of the membership, the newly elected executive will continue to work hard in defense of the collective agreement and ensure our rights stay protected. Keep in mind that an injury to one is an injury to all, you are the union, so stay involved.
