Joan Jessome says she’s stepping down as Nova Scotia Government and General Employees Union president to run for position with National Union of Public and General Employees in Ottawa.
Jessome says she will see out the remainder of her term with the NSGEU until elections are held in May.
“This was not an easy decision for me: throughout my decades of involvement with the NSGEU, I believe we have made great strides together and achieved much for the membership and working people of Nova Scotia,” she said in a release to members.
Jessome has been an officer of the NSGEU for approximately 20 years, serving 17 as president.
