Bylaws

What are the CUPE 2926 Bylaws?

Our bylaws set out the rules for how our local democratically elects our representatives, and how it is run.

What does the CUPE National Constitution (2019) say?

13.3 Local Union Bylaws

(a) All chartered Local Unions are governed by this Constitution and the bylaws in Appendix B.

(b) A Local Union can make additional bylaws. The additional bylaws cannot conflict with this Constitution or the bylaws of a Service Division to which the Local Union belongs.

(c) Any additional bylaws or amendments must be approved in writing by the National President before they come into effect.

(d) At the request of the Local Union, the National President may approve bylaws that do not comply with Appendix B if there are strong and compelling reasons to do so.
