Guest Lauren Posted February 13, 2017 at 12:54 AM Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 at 12:54 AM Hi, at an Annual General meeting can staff employed by the non-profit organization, who are also considered members as laid out in our bylaws, cast votes in the election of directors? We do not allow staff to vote at regular Board meetings but with our AGM coming up - this question has been raised......any help would be appreciated!

You said the staff are considered members of the organization. What do your bylaws say? The question is not whether they are considered members but whether they are actually members pursuant to the bylaws and whether the bylaws restrict those membership rights in any way.
