WEST TRANS AND SOUTH TRANS SHUTTLE RESTRUCTURE
Sisters and Brothers,
As per article 46.01 of the Collective Agreement, the Corporation gave notice to the Union on April 20, 2021 that it intends to begin a major restructuring exercise with the implementation date set for September 20, 2021.
On May 11th, we met with the employer in hopes of postponing the restructuring exercise and find other avenues, because of the pandemic. On May 20th, we met again and were advised, because of the Canada Labour Code changes made regarding part-timers entitled to 30 minute breaks for tours with five consecutive hours, and other issues, the Corporation has decided to proceed forward.
The main focus for this restructuring exercise will be to address LVR, adding lunches to part-time tours, and resolving end of day overloads; all of which will result in an increase of tours.
Please note that there is a freeze in the component as of May 21st, which means any employees transferring into the unit will bid second round, when there is an increase in tour as a result of a major restructure.
If you have any questions or concerns in regards to this restructuring exercise or bidding process please feel free to reach out to us at (416)241-6642 or by email [email protected]
In Solidarity,
Qaiser Maroof Stacey Mills Bruno Rossi
