Parks bargaining team update

October 2, 2017 - 10:39am • Bargaining

Our bargaining team met with Parks Canada during the week of September 18th, 2017.

PSAC-UPCE tables counter-proposal to Canada Post’s global offer

October 2, 2017 - 10:38am • Bargaining

Our PSAC bargaining team and management at Canada Post were back at the negotiations table in Ottawa from September 27 to 29, 2017.

Our PSAC bargaining team met in caucus for two days and reviewed in detail the global offer that Canada Post tabled on August 9, 2017. Our team fully considered the employer’s offer and prepared a counter-proposal which we tabled on September 27.  Both parties met and discussed a number of outstanding issues.

IMP Comox Bargaining Update: Arbitration dates set for February 27 & 28, 2018

September 28, 2017 - 3:50pm • Bargaining

In March the union and the employer selected Arbitrator Judi Korbin to settle our collective agreement, which expired June 30, 2015. We have been working for the past seven months to schedule arbitration dates!

Finally, after IMP dragged its feet for months and months, the Arbitrator had no other choice but to order the employer to an arbitration at the end of February. It’s shameful that the employer doesn’t respect us enough as employees to agree to arbitration dates in a timely manner.

CFIA Bargaining: Positive but Slow Progress Being Made

September 25, 2017 - 11:40am • Bargaining

Our bargaining team met with the employer in Ottawa from September 19 to 22, 2017.

Although progress is slow, the parties worked hard this week on all outstanding issues at the table and agreed to focus on priority areas. We are encouraged by the fact that the Employer removed the serious concessions that had been previously tabled under “Agency Transformation / Building For the Future”.
