As we continue to hear about all the amazing work being done by CUPW members to ensure that the postal service continues. However, this pandemic has been affecting our social life, as well as our physical, psychological and even economic well-being.
As frontline workers, we have a responsibility to take care of each other at work and at home.
The current crisis can be a source of stress, even anxiety for many people, including postal workers. The role of our Social Stewards is more important now more than ever and Social Stewards continue to play a crucial role in helping CUPW members get the assistance they need. CUPW has supported the use Social Stewards for a number of years. Where Canada Post’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) doesn’t meet your needs, our Social Stewards can lend a helping hand.
