Your BCGEU Bargaining Committee is pleased to announce we have reached a settlement agreement. 

Full details of the deal will be provided early next week, along with the date and time of a Town Hall membership meeting and the ratification vote to follow immediately thereafter. Both the meeting and the balloting will be conducted online.

Your Bargaining Committee is recommending acceptance of this renewal agreement and we encourage you to vote YES.

Pandemic Pay Update

In response to our enquiries, the employer advised that the opportunity to apply to the provincial government for the pandemic pay subsidy had just recently become accessible.

They committed to meet the deadline and hope for a positive outcome.
