ICBC – Attendance Management Program Policy Grievance Update #1
March 5, 2026
To: All MoveUP members at ICBC
Earlier this year, your Union filed a Policy Grievance regarding ICBC’s implementation of the Attendance Management Program. While ICBC is promoting this program as “supportive”, your Union sees it as disciplinary and a violation of Articles 17, 19, and 28 of your collective agreement; as well as Bill 11 of the Employment Standards Act and the B.C. Human Rights Code.
On February 17, 2026, Union Representatives Jaime Scott and Sara Colliss met with ICBC to discuss our concerns in a Stage 3 Grievance Meeting. We argued that the Attendance Management Program is punitive, discriminatory, and places restrictions on the use of leave entitlements that have been bargained for over many years. Our requested remedy was to hold no more meetings with managers, and to rescind the policy altogether.
On February 27, 2026, ICBC issued a response denying the grievance. They believe the Attendance Management Program fits within their management rights and is reasonable and necessary. Your Union strongly disagrees.
Next Steps
- Your Union will continue to fight the Policy through the grievance process as per Article 3 of the Collective Agreement.
- We are preparing additional training and resources for job stewards to support members affected by this program.
- Our union representatives continue to ensure that ICBC upholds our collective agreement and the BC Human Rights Code — treating every member with compassion, fairness, and respect.
- If management contacts you about the AMP, inform your job steward. You have rights — and we are here to help you understand and exercise them.
- You can find your local job stewards in the Quick Contact section of the MoveUP Member Portal, which lists stewards by member council area. If you haven’t accessed the portal before, you can find instructions on how to log in here.
We will continue to keep you updated on the progress of this grievance.
In solidarity,
