Postal Workers across the country are planning to have May 30^th as Day of Action to organize the work floors to take back the power. This will send a strong message to the boss that the work floor belongs to the workers.

As you may have seen by now, on one hand Canada Post has shown a bigger deficit and on other hand they have given themselves an enormous number of big bonuses, while some of our members are struggling on various issues like Bullying and Harassment, Article 54 accommodations and an ongoing battle on more day shift positions.

During the negotiations we all need to stand together in Solidarity and show the boss that we are ready to “FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT”. On May 30^th we are asking our members to take part in the day of Action and organize the work floors. You can have work floor meetings, black T shirt day etc.  and loads of pictures to support our negotiators.

The next few months will be very important for us, we will need to show the boss that we DESERVE better. Going forward we will be having monthly day of actions in our local.

On May 30^th We will show the employer that Vancouver local is ready to take on this struggle.

The Struggle Continues …………

In Solidarity,

Upon filing a WCB claim, a Case Manager will review all the documents submitted by your healthcare providers, your account of the incident leading to the work-related injury, and any documents provided by our employer from their investigation. All these documents can be accessed in the Work Safe BC portal, allowing each injured member to view any information related to their file.

Sometimes, the job description our employer submits may not match the actual tasks we perform daily, or the reported injury occurrence may not align with the workers’ submissions. In such cases of conflicting statements, the assigned WorkSafe BC Case Manager may request a job site visit to better understand the work performed, take photographs, or gain a general understanding of the work area to help clarify the work descriptions provided.

Furthermore, any worker with an ongoing claim can request WCB to conduct a job site visit to help explain body movements, demonstrate the repetitive movement during the workday, or show how certain tasks such as lifting and carrying parcels may lead to the reported work-related injury.
