Last evening, members of Rod McGillivary Memorial Care Home - Local 447 voted to accept a new three-year collective agreement (effective April 1, 2025 - March 31, 2028). These members provide care to the home's long-term residents.
Highlights of the new agreement include wage increases in each year of the agreement, an increase to premiums, an increase to escort fees, and three-hour call-out language.
The next step in concluding the collective agreement is to work with the employer to finalize and sign-off the document, which could take some time.
Members are encouraged to make sure the union has their current contact information to receive a link to their new collective agreement once it is available.
