SAFA Membership Update: May 20th

New 2024–2028 Collective Agreement Now Available

I’m pleased to announce that the 2024-2028 Collective Agreement between SAFA and SAIT—ratified by members in February 2025—has now been published. You can download a PDF of the full agreement from the SAFA website immediately, and hard-copy print versions will be available in the SAFA office in the next couple of weeks.  If you have questions about the new CA, contact the SAFA Office or your SAFA representative  for more information. 

In Solidarity,

Craig Coolahan

SAFA Labour Relations Officer

Richard has been an instructor at SAIT for over 18 years and previously served as a SAFA representative to the BoG from 2014-2018.
