APTS demands adopted in General Council
We’ve just taken a key step in negotiating your next collective agreement. You were consulted about APTS demands at general assemblies last spring. These demands have now been adopted by our General Council on September 27, 28 and 29, and they’ll be tabled with the Treasury Board and the CPNSSS (the management bargaining committee) by the end of October 2022.
The APTS has also joined the Front commun, a coalition of labour organizations that includes the CSN, the CSQ and the FTQ. Joining the common front means that we need to ensure consistency for some of our demands, including those relating to pay, pension plan, parental rights and regional disparities. At the General Council, your delegates unanimously endorsed a harmonized set of demands.
We know you’d like to know more about the substance of these demands, but out of respect for our Front commun partners, we need to wait until they’re officially tabled to provide full information.
