PAY EQUITY
Failure of the umpteenth phase of conciliation
The APTS is bitterly disappointed to report that at the end of this new conciliation period set out in Law 4 (which was adopted last April), the complaints contesting the 2010 pay equity audit results are still not settled. Given the management proposals we received, it’s hard to imagine a satisfactory settlement for our members. The APTS tried all last fall to arrive at an agreement to ensure fair and accurate recognition of changes that occurred in the work before 2010, so that our members could be paid without sustaining wage discrimination.
In the face of this failed conciliation of complaints filed in 2011, the CNESST will reactivate its investigation.
