representation
The LMS Employees’ Association (LMSEA) was formed to provide responsible advocacy and representation for all employees of LMS. The Association believes this is best achieved when there is a strong and respectful relationship between management and employees. Everyone can achieve their individual goals when they work together as members of a team.
health benefits
Your plan coverage includes life insurance, dental, prescription drugs, long term disability and more. At hire, you should have completed enrollment forms and after three (3) months of employment, you should receive letters from your Benefit Plan Administrator (Industrial Alliance) that includes a drug card and a username/password for managing your account online. For more information about what your plan covers, call the toll free number or email: info@lmsea.ca

Retirement savings program
Your Association negotiated for Employer contributions into a retirement savings plan on your behalf. Your contribution levels can be found on the retirement savings page on this website.
