Canadian Union Of Public Employees

The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) is Canada’s largest union. With more than 680,000 members across Canada, CUPE represents workers in health care, education, municipalities, libraries, universities, social services, public utilities, transportation, emergency services and airlines. A strong and democratic union, CUPE is committed to improving the quality of life for workers in Canada. Women and men working together to form local unions built CUPE. They did so to have a stronger voice – a collective voice – in their workplace and in society as a whole. CUPE members are service-providers, white-collar workers, technicians, labourers, skilled trades people and professionals. More than half of CUPE members are women. About one-third are part-time workers. Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/cupescfp Twitter @CUPEnat: http://twitter.com/cupenat
