The Power Line

Member Spotlight – We Want to Hear from You

CUPE 998 is excited to launch a Member Spotlight feature in our upcoming Powerline newsletter.

We’re looking to highlight one member from Manitoba Hydro and one member from Efficiency Manitoba. This is a chance to share your story, your role, and the work you do every day.

Whether you’ve been with the organization for years or are newer to the role, we’d love to hear from you.

Interested in being featured?
Please contact the CUPE 998 office or email the CUPE Communications Chair Michael Crowley directly to let us know.

We look forward to showcasing the people behind the work that keeps our organizations strong.

In solidarity,
CUPE 998 Communications Committee
