Compensation and Rewards have always been an important part of Human Resource Management as they help in attracting, motivating, and retaining highly compatible employees. Unions are the formal organizations that support, protect, and intervene on behalf of the employees’ benefits and keep an eye on the workplace conditions like wages, compensation, job security. They have played a crucial role in raising industry standards to a higher level.

Join the Capilano Human Resources Management Association (HRMA) as we host HR professionals for a discussion on discussing these three crucial topics. We will be joined by guest speakers who will talk about the compensation and rewards required by BC labour laws, like minimum wage, overtime pay, and how unions help protect them, and what is their personal experience in the HR field in general and in the unionized environment.
