OPSEU's Policies

OPSEU members want our union to be part of the solution to environmental problems. We want a green union, greener workplaces, and cleaner, healthier communities. 

At the 2005 OPSEU Convention, delegates approved a motion: Working for a Healthier and Safer Environment.  A three person “Green Team” was formed to bring a union-wide environmental action plan to the 2006 Convention along with a resolution for environmental actions for members to consider.  View the executive summary ( .pdf)
