I have been a unit officer for the QU Facilities bargaining unit for approximately ten (10) years working directly with UPSEU Local 1222 to best serve our members. They are only a phone call, text message, or email away from thoroughly answering any question that I have, as well as any of our members. The dedication that UPSEU Local 1222 has in representing each of their members is evident in how quickly they respond to questions and/or issues, as well as there strong advocacy for the membership.
Additionally, I was on the negotiating committee for the last two (2) contract negotiations and worked closely with many of the UPSEU Labor Relations Representatives, including the President of UPSEU. Through the efforts of UPSEU Local 1222, they helped us achieve fair contracts which addressed many issues, which the membership was seeking.
~ John Dacey, Unit President
