Negotiations with Treasury Board
PSAC Bargaining Units with Treasury Board (PA, SV, TC, EB, FB)
Negotiations with Treasury Board: TC Group
The end is in sight. We are proceeding to our arbitration hearing in two weeks. We will be in front of the arbitrator from July 6 to July 8.
Throughout this round of bargaining, this employer has not negotiated with us. And as a result, we have applied for arbitration. Even though the employer has ensured that we don't get a fair arbitration hearing by hiding behind the Expenditure Restraint Act, your bargaining team has decided to proceed to a formal arbitration hearing to get a ruling on our outstanding issues.
We will seek a ruling on all of our issues, even those with an economic impact as our proposals extend beyond 2011, which is the sunset date of the Expenditure Restraint Act.
On this page, you will see a link to our arbitration brief. This document lays out all of our remaining outstanding issues and it details the rationale for each proposal. There are nine issues that we are bringing to arbitration (article reference in brackets):
- Travel Status Leave – captive time (34.09)
- Injury on Duty Leave (41)
- Education Leave (54)
- Dangerous Goods Allowance (62)
- Hours of Work for Marine Search and Rescue Coordinators (App. D)
- Call-back pay for Hospital Technologists in Manitoba (New Appendix)
- Hazardous Substances Handling Allowance (New)
- Pre-retirement Leave (New)
- Wages (App A)
