Employer Bargaining Committee Meets with PSEC Secretariat and Funders

Following a one-week postponement in the scheduled ratification vote for the 2022-25 tentative collective agreements to enable the bargaining committee to meet with PSEC Secretariat and the funders, CSSEA’s Employer Bargaining Committee reaffirms its support for the tentative agreements and recommends members vote to ratify. The meeting between the Employer Bargaining Committee, CSSEA’s Board Chair, Vice-Chair and provincial funders took place on March 16 and was an opportunity to clarify the intent of the government funding letter, specifically its application to the non-union and excluded management compensation increases, which is outside CSSEA’s mandate. The meeting allowed the parties to achieve a better understanding of the funding methodology and mechanisms of the sector’s funders.

The ratification vote for Community Living Services, General Services and Indigenous Services will be open from 7:00am Tuesday, March 21 to 5:00pm Monday, March 27. As the primary bargaining contact on record at CSSEA, you will receive an e-mail on March 21 with a unique and confidential link to a webpage where your vote is to be cast. Your vote will automatically be tallied based on your agency’s weighted allotment of votes and you will receive an e-mail confirming receipt once your vote has been cast.
