Hello CRPEG members,
Your Bargaining team met with the Company on June 18-20. Both parties were able to present their proposals on various topics, including counters to some of previously presented proposals.
Key articles of discussions included joint consultation Non-Continuing Professional Personnel Committee (NCPPC), Institute representation, company rules, Career and Professional Development, Workforce Adjustment Process, and Employee Performance Appraisals.
We signed off on some previously agreed-upon proposals. We are also in the process of finalizing the CAAT pension language and moving some Company Policy language into the collective agreement. Monetary topics have not been discussed yet.
Negotiations are progressing but there is still lots of work to be done by both parties. Your negotiations team is working on a variety of items to prepare for the next session of negotiations scheduled for July 23–25, 2024 with another session in September.
As always, we value your feedback. Please share your thoughts and suggestions with us via email at crpeg_negotiations@pipsc.ca.
In solidarity,
Your negotiation team.
