We are looking for volunteers to fill the three committees described below. Much of the work happens by conference call; in some cases there are in-person meetings, usually in Toronto. Committee members get paid time off from work to attend joint meetings with management and travel costs for members outside Toronto are covered.

National joint employment planning committee: deals with downsizing, including the layoff and recall procedure.

National joint training committee: discusses the training needs of CMG members with managment.

CBC Branch by-law and policy committee: a Guild committee responsible for reviewing the by-laws and policies of the CBC Branch.

The Guild executive at CBC will make the final selection of members of each committee. The selection will be based on the content of your application. Please submit a separate application for each committee you would like to join to cbcbec@cmg.ca with the name of the committee in the subject line, and include:

– Your name and work location
– Details on why you are interested in joining the committee
– Your relevant experience
– The order of preference of the committees (if you apply to more than one).

The deadline for applications is 5 pm ET on Monday August 29, 2011. If you are not selected for a committee at this time, your application will be kept on file for future vacancies and sub-committee work. Your union needs you! Thanks to all who participate in Guild committees.
