What The CNFIU Can Do For Your Organization


  • The Federation provides a pooling of financial resources to provide leadership education seminars which would be financially out of reach of the numerically small Independent Labour Organizations.


  • It provides a continual information service pertaining to Legislative changes and arbitration awards affecting all workers, unionized or otherwise.


  • It provides support from professional representatives, as close as your telephone, in matters relating to advice on labour legislation, labour laws, negotiations, processing grievances through to arbitration, and how to protect your autonomy from raids by other Unions.


  • It provides a library of information and expert assistance that should be available from other unions, but without paying the exorbitant fees and per capita taxes levied by other Unions.


  • The two heads are better than one concept in arriving at solutions to your current problems. Being able to pick up the telephone and discuss your problem with a fellow affiliate or CNFIU staff can give you different perspectives in solving the various problems and issues.


  • Up-to-date information on Labour Relations matters, wage and benefit surveys and related information on benefit costs which are invaluable in preparing for negotiations of a new contract, are just a phone call away.


  • Professional help in the process of Arbitrations, Negotiations, Conciliations and Mediation of Contracts or any other matter which might mean your attendance before the Labour Relations or other Governmental Agencies.


  • Professional researching of Labour Legislation and Arbitration decisions related to your workplace issues.


  • Providing educational seminars in order that affiliates can meet the current demand by their members for quality service.


  • Assistance with payment of legal fees in arbitration hearings which can be a burden on some Independent Unions.
