Teamsters Local 464 News

Teamsters Joint Council No. 36 recently held its 2^nd Annual Education Week in New Westminster, at the Inn at the Quay Hotel. The week-long event gathered over 70 Shop Stewards and Union Officers from across British Columbia and the Yukon Territory, representing Locals 31, 155, 213, and 464. The event was an opportunity for Stewards to reunite and enhance their skills, focusing on advanced training and educational sessions. Participants engaged in in-depth workshops and seminars aimed at strengthening their knowledge and leadership abilities to better represent and advocate for their members.

We were all extremely proud to provide a donation of $9,750.00 to Coast Mental Health Foundation, of Vancouver. Our September 2024 Tournament was a resounding success and Richard O’Shaughnessy, of Coast Mental Health Foundation, was blown away by the huge increase over previous years.

Please join us next year at Newlands Golf and Country Club!

This October, Joint Council No. 36 held its first Education Week for Shop Stewards at the Inn at the Quay, in New Westminster, and it was quite the success! The Joint Council Education Week is an inaugural event where some of the top experts in Labour provide education in grievance handling, collective bargaining, legal and legislative updates, and more.  Congratulations to all attendees! We're already looking forward to next year. 

In the interests of further growing the Local Union, Local 464 has created an Organizing Incentive Program for those who provide a lead and assistance in achieving a first contract with a new bargaining unit.

Incentives are monetary in nature and increasing on a scale based on bargaining unit size.
