Your bargaining committee would like to thank you for the strength and solidarity you have shown throughout negotiations.
Agreement Summary
This is a three year deal with 0% wage adjustments in the first two years and a wage re-opener in the third year, which can be forwarded for arbitration if we do not agree to a wage adjustment with the employer.
Here are some of the highlights in the agreement:
• You can now file a grievance for workplace harassment and discrimination, which can go up to arbitration;
• You can now file a grievance for reclassification requests, which can also go up to arbitration;
• Improved flex-time;
• A new Contracting Out Article that forces the employer to consult with the union on any proposed contracting out of services;
• Improved salaries for student workers.
Please do not hesitate to contact a member of your committee or AUPE resource staff with any questions, comments or concerns you may have.
