The Contract Committee is returning to the bargaining table to secure the first Collective Agreement for RAs! We would greatly appreciate your help spreading the word to members in your department, attending bargaining sessions, and encouraging others to join as well.

We will begin to bargain substantial issues that are important to RAs, including maternity/parental leave, healthcare and dental benefits, vacation, scheduling changes, and more. Your presence at these sessions will demonstrate to the Employer that RAs are actively fully engaged in this process and are committed to getting their Collective Agreement now.

Our scheduled bargaining sessions will be held next week on the Burnaby campus as follows: 

• November 18 from 1:00 to 4:00 pm in ASB 10704
• November 19 from 1:00 to 4:00 pm in ASB 10704
• November 20 from 9:00 to 1:00 pm in ASB 10704

We hope to see you there! As always, coffee, snacks, and t-shirts will be available to members who attend bargaining sessions.
