*Updated on September 8, 2022, to reflect new HEU contract information*
Both the Hospital Employees’ Union (HEU) and BC General Employees’ Union (BCGEU) have reached tentative collective bargaining agreements after months at the provincial negotiating table–September 2 for the former, the latter on September 7. The agreements would provide identical yet significant wage increases (BCGEU) (HEU) for almost 100,000 public-sector workers. Both contracts still need to be ratified by their respective memberships.
BCITFSA President and Chief Negotiator Colin Jones has previously discussed how early public-sector agreements in this round of bargaining will establish a pattern for FSA negotiations. See our Bargaining Page for more details. We will update the membership as more information becomes available.
