Swan Valley School Division Support Staff (MGEU Local 463) are among the latest workers to choose MGEU.

Each and every day, these members provide critical supports for students in Western Manitoba in a variety of ways. Over 140 workers are represented in the new Local, which includes Educational Assistants, Administrative Assistants, Clerks, Cleaners, Custodians, Librarians, IT Technicians, and Program Assistants.

“These workers have seen the value and the importance of being part of a union,” said MGEU President, Kyle Ross. “We’re very happy to welcome them to the MGEU family and work with them to help ensure they have a strong voice in their workplace.”

The first Local meeting for Local 463 members is scheduled for Tuesday, November 12, 2024 where they will:

  • review the MGEU’s structure and services;
  • elect their fellow members to the Local Executive (President, Vice-President, Chief Steward);
  • elect a Bargaining Committee to represent them in negotiations; and
  • discuss bargaining proposals, priorities, and next steps in negotiating their very first MGEU collective agreement.

All members of the Local are encouraged to attend.

Let’s give a big, warm welcome to all of the members from MGEU Local 463!
