CSSEA is pleased to announce that Employers have voted to ratify each of the three Collective Agreements by a convincing majority. Specifically, Employers in the Community Living Services division have voted 98.6% in favour of the new agreements; General Services voted 97.2% in favour; and Indigenous Services voted 100% in favour of the 2022-2025 Collective Agreements. The unions of the CSSBA have also ratified the Collective Agreements as of March 28, 2023; as a result, the tentative agreements reached on February 3, 2023 are now binding on all parties.
The new wage grids are currently being finalized with the unions and will be sent to Employers as soon they are available. In the meantime, the following schedule outlines key effective dates of implementation for Employers to note:
