Statement from PIPSC President Jennifer Carr in response to the President of the Treasury Board’s open letter regarding remote and flexible work:

We welcome the change of heart from the employer, in recognizing the need to re-assess the current telework directive. It is encouraging to see that the government acknowledges the importance of consulting with unions on this matter. 

If you care about good wages and working conditions – for yourself, your colleagues, and for hardworking people everywhere –  the best thing you can do is support striking PSAC workers and join a picket in solidarity. Join the picket this Thursday at 12:00 PM.

Please keep in mind that you must join the picket on your own time (for example, your unpaid lunch break).

Please disconnect from the government's VPN and use a personal device in order to ensure the RSVP form loads.
