UNA bargaining survey starts on October 16

United Nurses of Alberta will be conducting a bargaining survey of general members covered by the Provincial Collective Agreement — Alberta Health Services, Covenant Health, Lamont Health Care Centre, and the Bethany Group (Camrose)  – between Monday October 16th, and Thursday Nov 2nd 2023.

The current four-year provincial agreement expires March 31, 2024 and UNA is now preparing for negotiations regarding the contract starting April 1, 2024.

This survey of general UNA members (i.e. members who are have not recently participated in internal UNA work such as serving on Local Executives, the UNA Executive Board, or the Negotiating Committee) is conducted on behalf of UNA by Viewpoints Research.

When Viewpoints Research calls, often in the evening, your call display will show the UNA provincial office name and number: 780-425-1025.

If you are randomly selected to participate, please be aware that Viewpoints does not leave a message but may attempt to contact you up to five times. If you are out, or unavailable when Viewpoints calls, you may find UNA's number listed on your call display as a missed call. 

Information collected through the survey is confidential and anonymous. To protect members' privacy, dialing is computerized. This means that although the telephone interviewer knows the name of the member they are calling, they do not know, and cannot access, the member’s phone number or any other contact information. Viewpoints Research then combines and aggregates the data before sharing results with UNA, further ensuring anonymity. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact UNA Research Analyst Judith Grossman at 780-425-1025 or 1-800-252-9394 or by email at jgrossman@una.ca.
