Bargaining Update – April 20, 2022
The bargaining teams for SAIT and SAFA are pleased to provide the following joint statement:
After working with a mediator, the bargaining teams have a mediator’s report containing recommendations to resolve outstanding items between the parties. The full proposed terms of settlement, which include other items resolved during bargaining, will be subject to ratification by both parties. Notification of ratification must be communicated to the mediator no later than Friday, May 13, 2022. Both bargaining teams are recommending the terms of the report be ratified by their respective parties.
A special all-member meeting will be held online on May 2, 2022, from 4-5pm to review the tentative Collective Agreement settlement, including the mediator’s report. The online ratification vote will then be held May 3 – 9, 2022. If ratified, the terms of settlement will form a new collective agreement.
