Please fill out the following survey to let us know which dental care improvements are most important to you and to propose any changes that you’d like to see made to the plan. 

Federal public service workers deserve to receive their salaries in a timely fashion. And they should not have to face delays or errors due the former Conservative government’s decision to consolidate payroll services. That is the message that Chris Aylward, PSAC’s National Executive Vice-President, delivered in a meeting with Public Services and Procurement Canada on April 7.

The Public Service Alliance of Canada was back in court November 17-18 to appeal the previous Conservative government’s Bill C-10, the Expenditure Restraint Act. Adopted in 2009, it rolled back negotiated wage rates for federal public sector workers.

PSAC congratulates Scott Brison on his appointment as President of the Treasury Board Secretariat and looks forward to working together to restore public services and improve working conditions for public sector workers. “The integrity of and respect for the public service was a central issue during the election campaign for our members and for Canadians who rely on the vital services our members provide,” said Robyn Benson, National President of PSAC. “We look forward to turning the page and working together to rebuild and restore that trust.”

A new Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives study entitled Waiting to Happen: Why we need major changes to the health and safety regime in federally regulated workplaces was released today. The study reveals that the health and safety of over a million workers in the federal government and other federally-regulated workplaces is at risk. 

Following the last unsuccessful round of mediation, the CRA commissioner decided to take the unusual step of communicating with us in an effort to explain their severance proposal yet again.
