Healthcare Bargaining Bulletin #3

May 13, 2024
The CUPE Bargaining Council and the Provincial Health Labour Relations Services (PHLRS) have met several more times. We have reached agreement on some language within the collective agreement. Up to this point, we have agreed to language on definitions, grievance procedure, maternity leave to include childbirth through surrogacy, job applications and transfer language, added miscarriage to bereavement leave, uniform allowance and Northern remoteness allowance.
Bargaining is progressing well, and we will be starting monetary discussions sooner than anticipated. We have dates scheduled every Thursday and Friday, and additional dates may get added as things progress.
Who is your Bargaining Council?
Your CUPE Bargaining Council is made up of front-line health care workers just like you.
