Strike Vote Information - How To Cast Your Ballot

Dear Members,  

Voting will soon open for the WestJet Component's strike vote. This bulletin explains what to expect once voting begins and how to successfully cast your ballot. 

Voting Period 

  • Voting Opens: July 8 at 9:00am Mountain Time 

  • Voting Closes: July 15 at 9:00am Mountain Time  

The voting period will remain open for seven (7) consecutive days to provide members with ample opportunity to participate, regardless of their schedule or location. 

Watch Your Email 

Once voting opens, eligible members will receive an email directly from Simply Voting. 

That email will contain: 

  • A secure link to the voting platform 

  • Your unique voting credentials 

  • Instructions on how to access your ballot 

Casting Your Ballot 

Once you access the voting platform, you will be presented with the official strike vote question. 

The wording of the question will appear exactly as approved by the L8125 WestJet Component Bargaining Committee.

You will be asked: 

“Do you authorize the Union to call a strike, if necessary?” 

Once you've made your selection, you will be asked to review your ballot before submitting it. 

After selecting Submit, your vote will be securely recorded and cannot be changed.  

If you do not receive your voting email, please check your Junk or Spam folder. If you experience any further issues accessing the voting platform, believe you should have received voting credentials but have not, or require assistance during the voting period, please click here.  

This form will be available after 3:00pm Mountain Time, on July 8. Please note that distribution of your ballot may take a few hours to complete.  

Before Voting Opens 

We encourage all members to: 

  • Watch your inbox when voting opens. 

  • Vote early rather than waiting until the final day. 

Stay Informed 

Official strike vote information will be shared through: 

  • WJComponent.ca 

  • WestJet Component Social Media 

  • Member Email Communications 

  • Member Engagement and Strike Committee (MESC) 

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this vital democratic process. We encourage every eligible member to cast their ballot and ensure their voice is heard and to pass the message along to all of your Cabin Personnel colleagues!  

 

Your vote matters. 

Together, we determine our path forward. 


In Unity,
