Union meet for our foreign members

Esittely / Presentation

Do you know what exactly your Union is and how it works?
Do you want to participate in improving your work terms and rights?
Do you have questions you want to discuss face-to-face with Industrial Union’s experts?
Do you have ideas you would like to share with us about how we can better help you and other foreign members or get your colleagues on board in the Union?

We’re offering you a pleasant day in our comfortable, new facilities in the center of Vaasa – time for questions and answers, for ideas and feedback. The event is completely free of charge for our members, and we’ll offer you lunch also. You’ll get compensation for your travel expenses too.
– Trips by car are reimbursed at €0.39/km for a single passenger or €0.59/km if there is at least one additional passenger. The compensation is paid to the driver.

Target group: Industrial Union’s migrant-backgrounded members who are interested in how the Union works.
