A retroactive payment date is being discussed with Covenant Health Bonnyville GSS, and we will provide you further information once available.

Retroactive payment for former employees

In accordance with Article 1.04, employees who terminated before the new contract was ratified have until August 9, 2026, to submit a request for retroactive payment.

Requests should be emailed to HRBusinessSupport@covenanthealth.ca and include:

  • Subject line: HSAA GSS retro
  • Employee name
  • Employee number, if available
  • Termination date
  • Updated banking information, only if it has changed since the date of termination. Otherwise, payment will be made by direct deposit to the bank account on file.
