BCNU Supports Available for Member Impacted by Wildfires

BCNU's regional executive teams, supported by our occupational health and safety experts, are available to receive questions and concerns from nurses working in communities where there is an elevated risk of forest fire.

Several destructive wildfires have started or intensified throughout BC following the extreme temperatures that have occurred over the last few days. Members are encouraged to follow local advisories as they are announced and to reach out to their local BCNU representatives for support.

If you do not have contact information for BCNU representatives in your region, please login to the BCNU Member Portal and look under the 'Contacts' tab.

The union will be working closely with local health employers to ensure members' safety and security remains the number one priority.
