PSAC’s four principles are included in the MOA: sick leave provisions will be contained in the collective agreement, will provide for wage replacement, will protect and grandparent sick leave banks, and will not be administered by a third-party provider. Any enhanced sick leave regime shall contain, at minimum, these four principles. Workforce Adjustment Appendix What we achieved represents the most significant improvements in workforce adjustment since it was first signed as an appendix into PSAC collective agreements in 1998. Changes will reduce involuntary layoffs by allowing volunteers to come forward to leave the public service during times of workforce adjustment.

APPENDIX FF – EG COMPARABILITY AT THE CANADIAN FOOD INSPECTION AGENCY Although we were not able to achieve parity with EGs at CFIA, we have secured a commitment that we can file for arbitration to resolve this issue outside of regular bargaining. We can do so as early as June 2021. We feel that we have very strong arguments to make the case to achieve parity for EG members. If the employer does not agree to address parity at that time, we can put this issue alone in front of an arbitrator before negotiations in the next round are concluded.
