Celebrating 30 Years of UVPERSU: A New Season of Growth and Service

Dear UVPERSU Members,

This year marks a remarkable milestone as we celebrate 30 years of UVPERSU proudly serving and representing our members. Three decades of dedication, resilience, and commitment have established UVPERSU as a trusted voice for workers and a union that continues to place its members at the heart of everything we do.

As I step into my role as the new CEO of UVPERSU, I am both honoured and excited to lead our organisation into a new season of innovation, engagement, and enhanced member value.

There are also wonderful birthday wishes from our Chairperson, as well as our former CEO and former Chairperson. Enjoy the reading!
