October 19, 2007 Canada Revenue Agency Bargaining Unit Negotiations intensify as sub-committees complete their workOn Thursday, all the sub-committees reported back to the bargaining teams. With the exception of the ACS-SP classification conversion sub-committee, the sub-committees have concluded their work. The ACS-SP sub-committee will complete its work on Friday and report to the teams. Your team has now received responses from the employer on all outstanding issues. We're continuing to work hard to achieve a settlement. We're getting there with your helpYour bargaining team can't say thank you enough to our members who have been organizing the plantgating, wearing stickers and coming up with other great ideas to show their support. Members have even been braving sub zero temperatures in some locations to distribute stickers and daily bulletins. There isn't space to acknowledge everyone but here are some of the activities that have been taking place this week. In Trois Rivières, in addition to wearing “Deliver the Deal” stickers, 98% of the Local members wore blue jeans and red shirts and sweaters on October 15 to show their support for their team. One of our Locals in Toronto delivered balloons decorated with the “Deliver the Deal” stickers to their Director. In Sudbury, the Local distributed PSAC kit folders with the sticker and asked members to use them in the workplace and at meetings to show which side they are on. |
