MOA/LOU EDUCATION FACTOR
In November of 2017, a Letter of Understanding was signed by the parties and a sub-committee was formed and a subsequent Memorandum of Agreement was signed in January 2019. It was agreed that a change in education hours would not automatically affect the Provincial Job Description pay band going up or down unless one of the other nine factors changed as well.
PHARMACY TECHNICIAN ARBITRATION MEMORANDUM OF SETTLEMENT
In 2015 a settlement was reached in the Pharmacy Technician arbitration.
The history of this arbitration dates back to 2006, when a number of employee maintenance requests had been submitted to the Joint Job Evaluation Maintenance Committee (JJEMC). It was decided at that time that the classification as a whole would be reviewed. In 2007, the JJEMC completed their review which resulted in an increase to the existing pay band. The increase was implemented the first Sunday after the decision, as per the language governing annual/provincial reviews.
Grievances were filed shortly afterward on the basis that the effective date should be the date that individual requests had been submitted rather than the date relevant to the annual/provincial review. This dispute moved forward to arbitration and mediation, which then considered not only this classification, but others that posed a similar potential conflict. In addition, a review of the existing language was also undertaken. An agreement was reached on December 16, 2015, in which the parties agreed to operational language that will avoid this type of dispute in the future, with an effective date of February 1, 2016 for the language revisions. Revised timelines were the only changes to current processes that impacted employers, employees or unions.
MAINTENANCE LETTER OF UNDERSTANDING
In 2010, a Letter of Understanding was signed between the Saskatchewan Association of Health Organizations (SAHO) and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), Service Employees International Union-West (SEIU-West) and the Saskatchewan Government and General Employees’ union (SGEU). This letter speaks to the commitment from all parties to maintain a join Union/Management maintenance committee.
