Settlement of Policy Grievance – Fire Crew Physical Fitness Policy and Testing

Please watch your mailbox for a package of information being sent to you today which provides details of the Memorandum of Settlement to this policy grievance.

In order to assist employees to better understand the specific policy changes included in the Memorandum of Settlement and to answer any questions members may have, the Union has arranged for a telephone town hall meeting for 6:30 pm on the evening of Thursday, March 27, 2014.

Participating in a telephone town hall meeting is easy. We will call you between 6:30 p.m. and 6:35 p.m. on Thursday, March 27. During the meeting, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and make comments, just like on a radio call-in show by pressing “0”. The meeting will last about an hour, but you can leave at any time simply by hanging up.

You should receive a phone call inviting you to attend this town hall meeting on Tuesday evening, March 25. If you do not receive this phone call please contact us at 424-4063 or 1-877-556-7438 to ensure we have your correct phone number on file.

If you don’t receive a call the night of the meeting, or experience any technical difficulties during the call, you can join the call by dialing: 1.877.519.6647 PIN: 917456#. If you lose this number, just call the NSGEU (424-4063 or 1-877-556-7438) during the call. We have staff on hand to provide you with the call in number.

Thank you, and we look forward to speaking with you on Thursday!
