Bargaining
Alpine Counselling Clinic – Bargaining Update #3
October 23, 2024
To: All MoveUP members at Alpine Counselling Clinic
Your bargaining committee met with your employer on October 21 and 22, 2024, to continue collective bargaining. Our planned meeting for October 16 was cancelled due to illness. During these two days, your committee reviewed and discussed the vast majority of the non-monetary proposals with your employer.
Good progress was made with the parties having now signed off on more than half of the proposals that will form the finished collective agreement. With primarily monetary proposals left to discuss, your bargaining committee tabled our wage proposals at the close of our bargaining session on Tuesday. At our next meeting we expect to receive input from your employer on our proposal.
The parties have two sessions of bargaining booked in November and are seeking to add a few more dates in late November. We will next be at the table on November 4 and 5, 2024.
If you have any questions, please see your bargaining committee member Darius Kian, or contact Sara Colliss, Union Representative at scolliss@moveuptogether.ca or 604-837-9471. Otherwise, you can expect your next update to come from your bargaining committee following our next bargaining dates on November 4 and 5, 2024.
In solidarity,
Your bargaining committee:
Darius Kian, Job Steward
Sara Colliss, Union Representative
Chris Shier, Union Representative
