Your bargaining committee met with your employer for mediation on April 14 and 15. Over the two days, we were able to sign off on most of the non-monetary items and further discussed our full monetary proposals. With that said, the parties are very far apart and there are significant differences between us on the monetary proposals.
We have several more dates scheduled in mediation before the vacation season. These dates are set for May 28, June 4, June 18 and July 8 where we will focus on reaching a fair tentative agreement. Shortly after each meeting date, we will provide an update to all membership which will include details on our progress.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this bargaining update, please reach out to Ewa Defazio at ewad@hsaa.ca, Karen Caig at kCaig@hsaa.ca or call the Members' Resource Centre at 1-844-280-4722 (HSAA).
Thank you for your continued support and patience.
In solidarity,
Your Bargaining Committee
