The BCGEU has created a Health Science Professionals Sectoral Council to address the specific concerns of the 2,200 Health Science Professionals working in BC Health Authorities.

We are seeking one delegate from Local 406 who is interested in being part of this Council. As this is a new Council, the terms of reference will need to be developed and agreed to.

  • Receive reports from staff assigned on negotiations and labour management issues concerning the sector and will make recommendations to the President's office on appointment of labour management representatives where appropriate;

  • Discuss key issues concerning the sector, including strategy on negotiations, labour management, and organizing.

  • The Council will raise issues arising from the Health Services Professionals Bargaining Association (HSPBA) Collective Agreement to the Health Services component.

  • The council will work with the Health Services Component to represent the issues/interests of the Health Science Professionals.

The Health Science Professionals Chairperson will sit as a member of the Health Services component and attend in person meetings four times a year.

The Union will provide leave to attend the conference, make arrangements for necessary travel and accommodations, as well as cover meals and childcare.
