Effective immediately, GSU members working for The Western Producer or Wild West Steelhead can contact staff rep Donna Driediger at GSU’s Regina office if they require assistance.

Driediger is meeting with GSU staff rep Dale Markling this week to review Local 5 and 6 files in preparation for Markling’s June 4 departure. She is also arranging for distribution of the new collective agreement booklets to members in these two locals.

“I’ve been familiarizing myself with the Local 5 and 6 collective agreements, and I’m looking forward to my new responsibilities and meeting the members,” Driediger said. “I know I have some big shoes to fill and I’ll do my best to ensure GSU members receive the same focus and representation they received from Dale.”

The impending retirement of Saskatoon-based GSU staff rep Dale Markling has lead to new staff assignments for GSU staff on a temporary basis. We are working closely with Dale to ensure a seamless transition.

Further announcements will follow.
