Agreement reached on transitional job trades
An agreement was reached Dec. 2, 2008
between OPSEU and the Ministry of Government Services - affecting the
Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services (MCSCS) and the
Ministry of Community and Social Services (MCSS) - with respect to
transitional job trades for job-threatened Developmental Services (DS)
workers.
Under the terms of the agreement, 10
correctional officers will be given a monetary exit opportunity. Those
positions will then be utilized for transitional job trade purposes for 10
job-threatened DS workers who have successfully completed the correctional
officer training program.
“We are pleased to have been successful in
the negotiation of this cross-ministry agreement with the Ministry of
Government Services,” said ComSoc MERC Chair Roxanne Barnes. Corrections
MERC Chair Eddy Almeida agrees. “This agreement proves the importance of the
Factor 80 and Appendix 9,” Almeida said. “These provisions are under attack,
and we encourage the members to support their MERC and Bargaining Teams
while negotiations continue.”
For more information on the agreement,
contact MCSS MERC Chair Roxanne Barnes at 416-527-2791 or Eddy Almeida at
289-439-2135. The full agreement is available on the OPSEU website.
Members are also reminded to stay up to date
