What a farce

It's all true, the union rep who promoted this deal in Trenton could not answer any of my questions, when presented with hard facts and numbers he had no comment. In my view they just simply and intentionally mislead and took advantage of poorly informed members.

Cancel the PSAC and TB vote

From the beginning, this whole affair was mis-handled and in my opinion, our union acted on our behalf in bad faith.

Members were grossly misinformed and badgered into accepting this agreement by union representatives. Threats of "losing everything, perhaps your very job" intimidated many into voting "Yes" when they did not actually agree with the proposal. The union has not acted in the best interests of the membership.

Didn't get any information on where to vote, therefore didn't have opportunity to vote.
Would have voted no.

CR 3

I would like to state that I am defineley behind this I have thought that PSAC does a lot of things with fear mongering. I am glad that we finally stood up to those in power. Thanks

This petition does not reflect the opinion of all members I have talked with. We do not understand why our PSAC committee did not negotiate fairly for a benefit that was fairly negotiated for in 1960 and so easily discarded without proper notice to the Union

On ne nous a jamais parlé que les rachats ne comptaient pas dans le calcul des semaines payables pour le versement de l'indemnité de départ. Belle surprise!

Re:

#283: visiteur -  

Ce n'est rien encore...la porte est maintenant grande ouverte pour le CT pour venir dans 3 ans nous chercher encore plus...Vous devez savoir que l'enveloppe que le syndicat AFPC a reçu est approximativement la valeur totale qui en coutera a chaque membre dans 10 ans...soit 10 000 000$. Et cela en seulement 2 semaines de négociation!

I do not want to loose my severence pay when I retire. I will have put in many years by the time I retire and I will have earned the right to receive severence pay upon retirement. There are many other areas to cut back if the government is looking for money.

I do not want to loose my severence pay. The government has many other options of where they can trim excess spending.

What you did was wrong! Quit protecting yourselves and stand up for us! That is what you were elected to do! Where was the NO option propaganda?
Guest#288 Jan 18, 2011, 18:14

Peut on nous consulter et nous entendre parfois?????????

Bien évidemment, les options qui nous ont été présentées n'étaient rien de très favorables pour les membres. Perte de cette prime de départ et en plus une augmentation salariale qui ne correspond pas du tout au taux de l'indexation du coût de la vie. Quand j'ai entendu ces offres j'avais du mal a croire que l'on nous retirait une pierre angulaire de nos coventions. Bénéfices qui ont été durement acquis par nos prédécesseurs.

Tout augmente autour de nous, sauf bien évidemment nos salaires, qui en fait diminuent en fonction de tout ce que l'on retire sur nos chèques de paie.

Dire qu'il y a tant de millions de dollar investit à l'étranger par la PSAC, argents fournis par les membres de la PSAC et qu'ici on est encore à nous battre pour maintenir des droits acquis!
Guest#289 Jan 18, 2011, 19:36

Phew

Something smells.....

CANCEL THE VOTE

I agree that the vote was done in a covert unconstitutional way and the only response that we received from PSAC is that they are going to correct the process. Well it is kind of late to think about correcting the process if the severance disappears for no good reason whatsoever.
The members who voted "YES" for this agreement are members who normally would never have anything to do with the Union. As a show of disappointed I for one am dropping out of any and all activities or groups run by PSAC

Collective Agreement

PSAC regulations dictate what the powers to be must follow or be disciplined even when it comes to the Collective Agreement. I wish others had started to question, got involved, protested earlier to prevent the ratification from occurring. I also hope others will come forth and voice their concerns as I did at our ratification vote. Keep up the fight for our rights before we do not have any. Thanks

calcul de severance

Je suis Conseillère en rémunération et nous sommes à nous préparer afin de faire le calcul pour le severance de tous les membres de PSAC donc nous aviser si les démarches ont été faites suite au lancement de cette pétition car rien ne peut arrêter ces démarches présentement et il sera trop tard lorsque nous allons émettre les paiements à compter de la fin juin de cette année. Car plusieurs personnes envisagent l'encaissement de celui-ci étant donné qu'ils pensent que c'est peine perdue d'avance et que c'est impossible que nous fassions renverser cette décision.

Re: calcul de severance

#294: - calcul de severance

Je me pose la question suivante...comment pouvez-vous vous préparer a en faire le calcul maintenant étant donné que les membres ne pourront en faire la réclammation seulement a compter du 22 juin 2011...et d'ici là il en a qui gagne des postes plus haut que leur niveau actuel. Je suis convaincu que vous allez être débordé à compter du 22 juin 2011 mais rien n'est encore terminé et je ne peut en dire plus surtout qu'ils en a qui viennent jeter un coup d'oeil sur la pétition et y laisse leur traces de comiques...donc continuez de faire circuler cette pétition elle doit être plus forte et faut pas oubler que nous sommes 95 000, donc....

Severence Vote

The Union neglected to consult with its members knowing that the members would take a big loss.
