Congratulations to our retiring faculy and those recognized today for their years of service. NIC works because you do!

Happy National Nursing Week!

Nobody should die or get injured at work!

Today we honour and remember co-workers and family members who were injured, made sick or killed because of something that happened at work.

In particular, we honour the members of our union family who we lost this past year. The impact of these members' deaths, of the heartbreaking sacrifice they and their families and communities have endured, of the commitment they made to the people of B.C. through their work, is significant and unforgettable.

In honour of these members, we continue our uncompromising fight for better, stronger regulations and practices and, ultimately, safer workplaces for all.

Whether on your own or in ceremony, we invite you to observe a moment of silence to acknowledge the 201 British Columbians who died due to work in 2023 and to recommit to health and safety for all workers. More information at https://www.dayofmourning.bc.ca/

Happy PI Day, esp. to our math colleagues.

Happy Valentine's Day. We love having you in this union! 🩵
