STSP: Annual General Meeting

Annual General Meeting: CUPE 387 Short Term Sick Leave Plan

When: Wednesday, April 22, 2026 at 5:00pm
Where: City Hall- Committee Room No. 2

Agenda:

  • Update on the Short Term Sick Plan Next Steps Regarding the Disbursement and Dissolution of the Plan
  • Election of Trustees (new Trustees welcome)

 

 

STSP Premium Vacation January & February 2026

There will be no STSP premiums collected for the months of January and February 2026. The Employer covers the first 5 days of short term sick leave per calendar year, which should result in less coverage needed from our STSP during this time. The Plan will still be providing coverage for our members for short term sick leave which extends beyond the first 5 days of any eligible short term sick claim. Revised premiums, if needed, should be applied starting the month of March, 2026.

Please stay tuned for more updates in the new year.

Thank you on behalf of the STSP

STSP Premium Vacation

Starting the month of June and for the balance of the year, the Short Term Sick Plan will only be collecting premiums on the first pay period of the month. The second pay period of the month will have no Short Term Sick Plan premiums deducted. Also, in the month of October when there are three pay periods, the premiums will not be collected on the second and third pay period. This change will not affect the coverage of any eligible Short Term Sick Plan claims.

Thank you on behalf of the STSP
