YOUR ANSWERS WILL BE KEPT CONFIDENTIAL AND WILL NOT BE SHARED WITH THE EMPLOYER.

Your AUPE Bargaining Committee needs to know and understand the issues that are important to you for the upcoming round of collective bargaining. We will focus on the key membership concerns identified in this survey.  All questions are optional, but please complete as much of the survey as possible.  Your input is vital and will give us the information we need to engage the Employer at the table and negotiate a fair collective agreement.  As you are answering the questions, please think about what your top three priorities are (What matters most to you?) for this round as you will be asked that question towards the end of the survey.  You will be given an opportunity at the end of the survey to tell the bargaining committee anything you would like us to know that we didn’t specifically ask.
