Division320Vancouver

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Recently we've had more than a few of our members go off work due to an injury, on or off duty, or illness and they have not had a proper understanding of his/her obligations, rights, and benefits. It is the intention of this office to assist those members who find themselves in that position. Attached you will find a copy of benefit information provided by the employer, giving brief outlines to Weekly Indemnity Benefits (WIB), dental care, extended health care, and various options that are available to you as an RTE at CP Rail.

In 2007 Division 320 decided that through our fundraising efforts and more specifically your vending machines, we will assist our membership with issues such as costs incurred getting Doctor's forms filled out for WIB purposes. The Division will reimburse a member fees charged in accordance with the fee guide set by the BC Medical Association (BCMA). Please keep all original receipts and forward to the Div 320 Secretary/Treasurer Sandra McCartney. If you have any questions please contact Sandra McCartney.

Please be advised that you should contact the applicable Union Representative when you go off work, so we can assist you if need be. Do not leave this until the last minute or until it's too late, sometimes time limits for filing for claims, grievances, or appeals are involved.

The following is a glance at the applicable Representatives you may require under these circumstances.
