Navigating Employment Insurance (EI) can be overwhelming, but the Unemployed Workers Help Centre (UWHC) is here to help. With offices in Regina and Saskatoon, this non-profit provides free support to any worker in Saskatchewan facing EI challenges.

At GSU’s recent convention, Regina’s Mark Crofford spoke about UWHC’s vital work and the key role unions play in funding its services. While open to all workers, union support ensures the Centre continues advocating for those struggling with EI claims.

How UWHC Helps:

 EI Guidance: Eligibility, special benefits, quitting/dismissal impacts, EI while in school.

 Claim Assistance: Contacting Service Canada, resolving delays, employer issues.

 Appeals Support: Challenging EI denials, tribunal representation.

 Referrals: Job search help, financial aid, mental health, housing support.

Thanks to unions like GSU, UWHC remains a free, trusted resource for workers in need.
