Joint Communication: Temporary positions with new Employers before separate payroll systems are introduced

United Nurses of Alberta and Alberta Health Services have released a joint communication with information for Employees who take temporary positions with different Employers after the new provincial health agencies or provincial health corporations have been established, but prior to the introduction of the separate payroll systems.

This joint communication builds on the Letter of Understanding RE: Health Care Re-Focusing (“Transition Agreement”) included in the UNA Provincial Collective Agreement that governs the transition of Employees from AHS to any of the new provincial health agencies. This applies to AHS, Recovery Alberta, Primary Care Alberta, Assisted Living Alberta and Acute Care Alberta (ACA) and will also apply to Cancer Care Alberta, Give Life Alberta and Emergency Health Services when they transition from AHS to ACA.

UNA members are encourage to read the joint communication and contact their Local Executive or Labour Relations Officer if they have questions or concerns.
