We have heard many issues from our members that will need to be addressed in upcoming negotiations other than those mentioned by the above posts (all good issues, by the way!). These include but are not limited to the following:
- Business travel vs Economy (certainly on flights of over 8 hours duration)
- Incentive pay at least on par with Canadian government employees (see below for website)
- Protection of employees from unfair dismissal or unfair labour practices
- A method of resolving disputes or grievances with management (none exists right now)
- Representation at committees where legislation or safety issues are of concern (ie. HAC, ICAO, IFALPA etc.)
Gov't of Canada per diem payments
Travel Directive, Appendix D - Allowances - Module 4 - Effective July 1, 2009 - Part 9 of 10
These are but a few of the outstanding issues that have never been addressed by CHC GO. They are not all remuneration issues. As professionals, these and many other issues need to be addressed.
