Did you know there are 32,000 UFCW Local 401 members working in nearly every major sector of the Alberta economy? We are Alberta’s largest private-sector union, and UFCW members provide key services in food retail, processing and services, hospitality, gaming, warehousing, healthcare, and education.
In our continuing efforts to bring these diverse voices together, we are holding a General Membership Meeting for all UFCW Local 401 members. These meetings are a great way to hear what’s going on across our Local and ask questions of your union leadership and fellow members.Â
Again, these General Membership Meetings are open to ALL UFCW Local 401 Members

This kind of meeting is a great way to hear about the situations fellow UFCW Local 401 members are facing across the province.
We often have guest speakers covering topics of importance to all members. Additionally, we will cover the normal, procedural union General Membership Meeting topics, including a review of previous minutes, union finances, and other matters. Participants can also expect to be polled on a variety of topics.
Members participating in the call can dial *3 to ask a question LIVE or have their question read out for all members to hear.
