LGBTQ

Mine Mill Local 598/Unifor LGBTQ committee exchanges information with the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit and queer communities and the general public about relevant programs and issues of interest.  This committee engages in outreach to the LGBTQ2+ communities to disseminate information and encourage participation.  They works co-operatively with other civic agencies whose activities affect LGBTQ2+ communities, including initiating and developing relevant projects to support their cause and bring education forward.  They will report to the Executive Board concerning issues of concern, including matters that require action by the Union.  They act as a resource for members and bring their knowledge and information to the Executive Board to ensure that the Union, signatory companies and events are accessible for people who identify as outside the gender binary.
