Your CFIA-SA Bargaining Team will be holding two town halls via teleconference to explain the ratification process and discuss the tentative agreement. Please join us on a call if you have questions regarding the ratification process or the tentative agreement.

Members of the Bargaining Team for the SH Group, as well as occupational representatives from other SH professions, met January 18 and 19/2019 to finalize profession specific pay proposals.

Your Bargaining Team is very pleased to present the ratification package in preparation for voting on the new tentative agreement! As you are aware, in the early hours of December 15, 2018 a tentative agreement was signed with the Employer, completing this round of negotiations.

The union gives us an excellent opportunity to look after our jobs. We can be directly involved in negotiating work conditions that are fair and progressive. These conditions are written into a legally binding collective agreement. The union also gives us the opportunity to sit on committees that can promote better communication, mutual respect and understanding with management.
