Everyone who pays dues and does work at Brock University that is covered by one of our bargaining units is automatically covered by their Collective Agreement and entitled to union representation in accordance with Ontario labour law. Union membership is legally protected.
To fully participate in the union, you must be a member in good standing. Being a member in good standing gives you a say in how your union is run. Only members in good standing can attend and vote at union meetings, run for elected union positions, vote in union elections, serve as delegates to union events, or attend and participate in committees and sub-committees. Being a Member in Good Standing protects your democratic voice.
The Member in Good Standing Form is not a strike pledge, a political endorsement, a loyalty oath, or a public document shared with the employer. Signing a Member in Good Standing form isn’t about agreeing with leadership. It’s about protecting your right to participate in decisions that affect your job.
To become a member in good standing, please fill out this form and email it to info@cupe4207.org or drop it off in our mailbox outside our office at GL-A 123.
