Call to Action – We Need Picket Captains!
September 26, 2025
To: All MoveUP Members at FortisBC and FortisBC-CSC
Your MoveUP FortisBC Job Action Committee members have been hard at work preparing in case we are required to picket in support of the IBEW’s FortisBC workers.
If this happens, we need to make sure that our picket lines are safe and well-organized. Picket Captains are members who volunteer to oversee the day-to-day operation of the picket. They sign members in and out to ensure they get their picket pay, act as points of contact for the Job Action Committee, and generally keep an eye on things.
We presently do not have enough Picket Captains to cover all the locations and shifts we may need to run. If you are willing to accept this responsibility, please contact your local Job Action Committee member today!
