Housing workers should not have to choose between overdue wage increases and a real round of bargaining.
After years without a new collective agreement, workers deserve both:
- The improvements they have been waiting for; and
- The chance to negotiate stronger language for the workplace they have today.
That means bargaining over the issues workers identified – not just duplicating yesterday’s deal.
We’re gathering signatures from all housing workers across the province to show the NSPHA that housing workers are united behind this demand for a new contract. Once at least 60% of us have signed, we’ll present the petition to our employer to show them that we’re serious about getting a new deal that works for our new reality; not just a rollover of our out-of-date contract.
