Values & Beliefs
Welcome to the Values & Beliefs Committee
Working together is our cornerstone! Global trade is rising. Nations worldwide are increasing their global footprint. Canadians no longer just compete with neighbourhood industries in local markets; we want to respond to worldwide needs. CUSW Members recognize the need to build better international networks, increase diversity awareness and improve relationships with national and global partners in order to be a union that people want to be a part of.
Projections by Statistics Canada show the Canadian-born workforce is shrinking. Baby boomers are retiring and birth rates are falling. Foreign-trained workers are expected to account for all net labour force growth in the next few years and 80% of population growth by 2031. As a progressive union, CUSW Members are leading the way in order to remove barriers and welcome new groups of Members.
Our 11 Values and Beliefs guide everything that we do.

Values & Beliefs
There are 11 Values and Beliefs that are part of our Constitution and guide everything that we do and all of the decisions that we make. Complete our new on-line course and by the end, you will know what those 11 Values and Beliefs are and have concrete ideas of how you can "live” them everyday and help to reinforce them in others.
