Let’s Talk about Mental Health Support for CUPE members

Brad Walchuk Uncategorized

This seems like a good day to remind you that, as a member of CUPE 3906, you have access to McMaster’s Employee Family Assistance Program (EFAP). This program is FREE and CONFIDENTIAL, and external from the university. The program offers FREE professional counselling on depression, stress, bereavement, relationships and more, as well as counselling for careers, work-life balance, and health.
 
More details, for members of all three of our units (TAs/Sessionals/Postdocs) can be found here: https://cupe3906.org/tas-unit-1/employee-family-assistance-program/

 
Access to this service was won through collective bargaining, and TAs and Postdocs will be at the bargaining table again this summer looking to make additional gains.
