Sydney Olympic Park Authority Members’ Bulletin – February 2019 (PDF version)
Welcome back to work and a busy 2019. This will be a big year for the SOPA and, as a É«ÀÇÉçÇømember, you can be confident your union will be supporting you with regard to all the issues and changes that may present during the year.
É«ÀÇÉçÇømembership
Do you have any new starters in your team, branch or the SOPA in general? Members should be aware that your union does attend the induction sessions for new staff at SOPA, but it would great if you a É«ÀÇÉçÇømember could encourage non-members to join. New members can join or email this bulletin to them and they can JOIN .
The É«ÀÇÉçÇøcovers all employees of SOPA and includes ongoing, temporary employees and agency staff, so why not encourage those new colleagues to join today and come to our regular É«ÀÇÉçÇømember meetings.
FIRST MEMBERS’ MEETING FOR 2019

At that meeting three É«ÀÇÉçÇøDelegates were elected, these Delegates then attended the first SOPA Joint Consultative Committee with É«ÀÇÉçÇøSenior Industrial Officer Kerrie Butson. This meeting was held on Wednesday 5 December.
