NOVA SCOTIA UNION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE EMPLOYEES

Welcome to NSUPE On-Line

Why Unionize?

The Nova Scotia Union of Public Employees would be honoured to represent you in your dealings with your employer. NSUPE has a wealth of experience and makes service to members its top priority.

Once NSUPE is certified to represent you, collectively you will gain legal rights that NSUPE will help you to implement and enforce. You will be able to negotiate directly with your employer, with our help, to determine the terms and conditions of your work.

We believe that even in a work place with good management, workers need a union. Working people should not have to depend on the generosity of their managers and employers. Managers and employers change and working people should not have to suffer the whims and wishes of every new face that walks through. In a union, working together, you have legal rights - you have the dignity of having some legal control over your own destiny.

If you lose your wages or if your working conditions change, it affects your whole family. Shouldn't you have some say over that? Of course the work has to continue! Of course we'll sometimes have to work hours we don't like! Of course some things won't go our way! BUT we should be able to legally work towards a fair and equitable system - a system that makes our voices heard - a system that gives us some influence! Under the law there is only one way to ensure your collective influence - you must become unionized.

NSUPE WANTS TO ORGANIZE AND TO REPRESENT YOU!

NSUPE wants to work with you - to provide you with the benefit of our experience and to learn from your experience.
