In our last round of bargaining, the employer and the union agreed to a one-time retention payment of two percent (2.0%) to be calculated based on the employee’s new base straight time hourly rate of pay (after the application of the general wage increases) earned between June 24, 2023 and June 21, 2024, for all employees who are employed as of June 21, 2024. If eligible, you should be expecting to receive the payment in the upcoming weeks.
At a recent CUPE 387 Executive Committee meeting, the Executive passed a motion to waive the collection of union dues from this retention payment.
