RCMP Canteen Depot employees in Regina

PSAC Victory Against Privatization

In May 2006, PSAC applied to the Saskatchewan Labour Relations Board (SLRB) to be certified as the Bargaining Agent for RCMP Canteen Depot employees in Regina. PSAC also filed two Unfair Labour Practice Complaints against the employer regarding retaliatory action against union supporters during the organizing drive. PSAC is pleased to announce that we have reached an agreement with the RCMP regarding the reclassification of Canteen workers from the private sector to the public sector. As a result, the Canteen workers will receive offers of employment under the Public Service Employment Act and will be covered by the Collective Agreement (Program and Administrative Services) between the Treasury Board and PSAC. The Canteen positions will be classified as CR02. As part of the negotiations, the employer has agreed to resolve the two complaints in favour of the members. Congratulations everyone!
