Strike Activities

During a strike, most AUFA members will be required to participate in 10 hours of strike activities per week. These activities can include:

  • Flying pickets: In-person strike activities can include picketing, leafletting, flyering, and door knocking. These strike activity will predominantly take place in the Athabasca, Edmonton, and Calgary areas.

  • Digital pickets: Picketing that can be performed regardless of one’s physical location will include social media work, letter and email writing, phone calls, artistic activities, and educational activities.

  • Strike service work: AUFA will require members to perform administrative tasks during a strike and this work will count as strike activity. AUFA members will also need to attend union meetings, which will count as strike activity.
