Important update from United Nurses of Alberta's Negotiations Committee
UPDATE #18
January 23, 2025
- The Labour Relations Board has approved the Essential Services Staffing Plans for Alberta Health Services, Recovery Alberta and Primary Care Alberta. The Labour Relations Board had approved Covenant Essential Service Staffing Plans in December 24.
- Formal Mediation commenced January 23, 2025, with David Jones as the Mediator.
- UNA Chief Negotiator, David Harrigan, clearly articulated the previous Mediator Recommendations were not viewed as “fair” and the monetary elements were not adequate to meet member expectations. The need to seek a new monetary mandate from the Government was reinforced.
- Formal Mediation will continue February 10 and 11, 2025.
