Congratulations to UPSE’s Member of the Year … Arlene Bowness! Arlene has always made the time to answer any and all questions that members have for her. She takes great pride in what she does and treats everyone equally. She has great knowledge about the union and she believes that the workplace can be improved through attention and effort. She has assisted countless members with their questions and has helped them understand their rights under the collective agreement.
