HEU's Young Workers’ Conference aims to empower young workers to build skills, connections, and knowledge to take active roles in our union and in the labour movement.
To be eligible for this workshop, you must meet the eligibility definition of a young worker – aged 35 years old or younger.
Participants will have the opportunity to learn about:
- skills for a successful organizer
- how young workers can organize within union and non-union workplaces
- how HEU can support young workers to build skills and be involved in their local and workplace
- action plans to mobilize young workers on issues affecting them, and to take leadership in their locals and within HEU
- collaborating with peers, leaders and mentors to build an inclusive and strong labour movement

New Member Orientation
Learning about your local union is one of your most important negotiated rights as a union member. Every collective agreement has language to support a new member’s orientation to their own local and to HEU itself.
HEU is offering a one-day new member orientation workshop to support locals setting up and deliver union orientation (induction) sessions to all new members.
HEU in Your Own Language
This workshop is being offered for the first time in a selected number of languages (Hindi, Punjabi, Tagalog and Spanish), and more options will be offered as we expand this project.
