1. Coffee and Snacks with AMUSE
Once again we will be hosting an all-afternoon AMUSE employee coffee break. You are invited to come and meet AMUSE representatives, share your working experiences on campus, and learn about the union and your rights as a casual employee on campus. We will have copies of the Collective Agreement and other information about your working conditions at McGill.
Monday, November 26th, 2012, 12:00pm until 4:30pm
Students’ Society of McGill University (3600 rue McTavish),
second floor, Madeleine Parent room (formerly the Breakout Room)

2. Protest the Protocol! Tuesday, Nov 27 at 3 pm
On November 30th the McGill administration will release a proposal for a permanent policy which they will use as protocol in the case of political action on campus. In its current form, the Protocol conflates mere inconvenience with violent disruption and therefore tramples on the right of McGill community members to express all but the weakest forms of political dissent. In doing so, the Protocol contravenes the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, which explicitly protects the freedom of all citizens to engage in principled, nonviolent protest. McGill unions have called on all members of the community to join us in condemning the Protocol and to work together to prevent its implementation.
Tuesday November 27
3:00 pm
Community Square - outside the James Administration Building
PROTEST THE PROTOCOL!
3. Pay Stubs 101
We’ve posted a Pay stub 101 video on the AMUSE website. AMUSE Treasurer Justyn Teed breaks down the details on how to access your pay stub online and how to make sure your pay stub reflect the benefits you should be receiving. Watch the video here: https://www.amusemcgill.org/
