On July 22, 2025, members of Poseidon Care Centre (Local 81) ratified a new 4-year collective agreement (effective April 1, 2024 – March 31, 2028).

Highlights of the new agreement include:

  • General wage increases in each year of the agreement
  • Market adjustment and other significant wage adjustments
  • New 15, 20 and 25-year long service steps  
  • Addition of Orange Shirt Day included under Designated Statutory & Pay Holidays

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 MGEU has their current contact information to receive a link to the new collective agreement once it is available.
