The ballots have been counted, and the Unit 1 (TA and RA in lieu) Tentative Agreement has been ratified by the majority of voting members.

The new Collective Agreement will come into effect upon ratification by the Employer at an upcoming Board of Governor’s meeting.

Summaries of the Tentative Agreement are available at the union office.

Thank you to all who supported the bargaining work throughout this process. While significant gains were made, there are still improvements that we will continue to strive for. We will build upon this Agreement, and will continue to work with you to ensure that your new rights are upheld. Unit 2 returns to bargaining in the new year, and Units 1 and 3 will be back at the table in just over two years time. The work continues, and it is only with your support and active participation that we will be able to achieve more of the priorities you identified throughout this process in the upcoming rounds.

In Solidarity,

Your CUPE 3906 Bargaining Team
