    SIGN PETITION TO SUPPORT DARTS!

    FUND DARTS!

    For more information the DARTS Moving Forward Together CLICK HERE

    DARTS (Disabled and Aged Regional Transportation System) is the non-profit organization contracted by the City of Hamilton to provide shared-ride, wheelchair accessible, door-to-door service throughout Hamilton. It functions as an accessible public service for seniors and people with disabilities and makes it possible for them to travel around the city.

    DARTS employs over 150 workers, who ensure the service runs safely and efficiently for all its users. Without these workers, DARTS would be unable to provide accessible transit for all those who need it.

    Unfortunately, the City of Hamilton does not provide stable and predictable annual funding for DARTS, despite its popularity and the vital services it provides. The lack of stable funding means that DARTS workers have been unable to review their Collective Agreement.

    Hamilton needs DARTS, but DARTS needs stable funding to maintain a safe and healthy workforce and to continue providing a much-needed public service.

     

    WE, THE UNDERSIGNED RESIDENTS OF HAMILTON, call on the Mayor Hamilton and Hamilton City Council to:

    Ensure that DARTS receives stable and predictable annual funding. 

      ATTENTION LODGE MEMBERS ONLY – SCHEDULING MATTERS

      SCHEDULING MATTERS

      To ensure operations run smoothly and efficiently for our members, the employer and residents, it’s important that the union address any scheduling issues as soon as they arise.

      The union only knows what our members advise us of what is happening.

      Whether it’s a conflict with your assigned shifts, unexpected availability changes, or any other concerns related to scheduling, your timely communication is key to resolving these matters quickly and minimizing disruptions.

      If you encounter a scheduling issue, please follow these steps:

      1. Notify your supervisor as soon as possible in writing (email) and please cc lodgesvp@cupe5167.org

      2. Please email all scheduling issues to schedule@cupe5167.org separately

           3. Provide clear details about the issue, including dates, times, and any relevant context

      Your cooperation in this process helps us to support members like yourself, as well the union will be prepared to address scheduling issues at Labour Management and Bargaining.

      If you have any questions or need further clarification, don’t hesitate to reach out.

      Thank you for your attention to this matter, and for your continued commitment to keeping our union strong and informed!!
