Burnt by Phoenix – 6th Anniversary

REVP STATEMENT

February 28, marks the anniversary of the debacle that is the Phoenix pay system. While most anniversaries are joyous occasions marked by cake and celebratory messages, this is not one of those moments. Instead, this anniversary is marred in both financial and psychological hardship of federal public service workers.

Six long years that started with massive financial loss to workers and even today has continued with constant pay shortfalls and errors. There appears to be no end in sight from this Phoenix fiasco.

The Phoenix pay debacle began under the leadership of Stephen Harper and continues to this day under the government of Justin Trudeau. Our members have suffered long enough, public service workers want to see an end to their pay problems. We deserve to be paid correctly, and when issues arise, to have them resolved quickly and fully, with concrete timelines for pay issues to end.

This pay system misery can be ended by the federal government taking swift and decisive action by implementing the below.

  1. Hire more compensation advisors to fix pay problems and prevent future issues.
  2. Support PSAC’s call for ongoing damages compensation.
  3. Make Phoenix general damages compensation non-taxable.
  4. Properly consult and engage with unions and federal workers on the next pay system.
  5. Launch a national inquiry into the Phoenix pay disaster.

We remain resolute in our demands in order to finally resolve these long-standing pay system issues. The federal government can end the disaster legacy of Phoenix and end the suffering endured by hard working public service workers.  They just need to muster the political will to put right what they have gotten so wrong for so long.
