Join members of the Calgary Branch Executive in an activity that demonstrates to the Calgary community that public servants are about much more than their next pay raise and sick day.
In this year of Canada’s 150th birthday, we are sponsoring a group/family clean-up of an area that Calgary Parks identify as in need. Bonus - there is plenty of free parking.
NR members have ratified the Tentative Agreement.
The next steps, currently underway, will require the employer to calculate the new pay rates and translate the new agreement prior to signing by both parties. This can hopefully be completed by the end of August.
In accordance with article 48.03 the employer will have a period of 120 days from the signature date to implement the new rates of pay, and issue retroactive payments. The recent experience of other Institute Groups has indicated that the majority of payments are being made well within the prescribed timelines.

The Bargaining Team hosted an information session on July 12 at the St. Elias Center in Ottawa and on July 13 at the Delta City Centre in Ottawa. We can’t express enough how pleased we were at the record amount of participation we had. It confirms our solidarity and the importance you have placed on our terms and conditions of employment. We appreciated all the positive comments and equally we appreciated all the tough questions and feedback.
As promised, attached is a copy of the presentation in PDF format.
