It’s been a difficult two years for media workers, juggling work in unprecedented circumstances and all the other Covid-19 related challenges.

The union continues working to ensure members’ health and safety are top priority, in addition to making improvements in the workplace.

Please see below a link to the CMG–VICE collective agreement:

Print copies have also been mailed to all VICE members.

In addition, the below quick reference guide was created to help answer frequently asked questions about your rights at work:

If you have a complaint or grievance, here is an easy step-by-step description of how we can help:

We also wanted to share the grievance Fact Sheet – https://www.cmg.ca/en/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Step-1-Issue-Fact-Sheet-for-members.docx   – It’s the form to be completed by members with workplace concerns, which will be reviewed by the staff representative to assess their case. It allows the capture of all the information needed to discuss a member’s case thereafter.
Contact your staff representative to further discuss your concern after submitting the fact sheet to your branch representatives via email and/or julieanne@cmg.ca

If you haven’t already done so, please sign your union card so we have updated contact information:
