CANADIAN UNION CUPE MOBILISES FOR SAFETY Hazards Magazine Four years ago, the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), the country's largest union representing 540,000 public sector workers, embarked on a plan to take a decidedly political and militant stand on workers' health and safety. The goal is to organise around health and safety to bring it back into the fold of the union, where it belongs. CUPE's new strategy - outlined in a nationally-agreed policy titled 'Enough!' - centres on training workers to take action in a militant defence of the right to healthy and safe workplaces.
