What will and won't change for SCMMA members?

The biggest changes are probably going to be seen by SCMMA elected representatives:

  • Learn and follow Society processes and policies. This will impact things like budgeting, titles of elected members, and familiarization of duties.
  • SCMMA Local Executive Committee will participate in an annual budgeting activity that all Society Locals participate in. The Local budgets are approved by the Society Board and managed by the Local Executive Committees.
  • Training will be provided by Society staff for members of the bargaining team and our stewards. 
  • SCMMA will have access to professional resources and consistency year to year, including being assigned a Labour Relations Staff Representative located in Saskatoon.

To most members, SCMMA will look very similar to how it looks now:

  • SCMMA Stewards and Board will continue to be the first line of support for members with issues and grievances.
  • SCMMA will continue to hold quarterly member meetings and steward meetings (aka SCMMA Connect).
  • Members will continue to receive updates from the SCMMA Board regarding bargaining and Local news.
