Bargaining Teams for the YHC Group and the Yukon Hospital Corporation reached a Tentative Agreement on or about June 1, 2017, concerning the renewal of our Collective Agreement covering PIPSC members working at the Whitehorse General Hospital, the Watson Lake Community Hospital and the Dawson City Community Hospital. Your Bargaining Team worked hard and is unanimously recommending acceptance of this Tentative Agreement.

The “Holland Cross Debates” sessions are intended to offer an open discussion with some PIPSC officials about key issues in the collective bargaining and other career related issues. It is one thing to get the views of the local audience at each Debate, but the “Holland Cross Debates” are also keen to find out what the rest of PIPSC members think about the issues we raise.
