BRFA Bargaining Update #1

Your elected Bargaining Committee met with the employer on June 29 and 30, 2026, to begin negotiations.

The opening meetings were positive and productive. The parties reached agreement and signed off on a significant number of HSAA’s initial proposals.

We have confirmed new meeting dates for September 9 and 10, 2026. We feel confident that discussions are on track and remain focused on reaching an agreement that reflects what members are hoping for and deserve.

If you have any questions, please contact Labour Relations Officer Karen Caig at KCaig@hsaa.ca. 

We appreciate your ongoing support for the committee and look forward to sharing further updates as bargaining continues.

In solidarity,

Shannon Kilcup, Communications Specialist
