As per the Public Service Labour Relations Act, our Bargaining Team presented our case before the Public Interest Commission (PIC) in December.
Given the number of issues outstanding between the parties, the Chair of the Public Interest Commission asked later in December for an extension beyond the timeline prescribed under the legislation. Both parties consented to this extension.
It is at the Chair’s discretion to take the time he needs to write the recommendation. Once we receive PIC’s recommendation from the Labour Board we will be sure to post on our website, and our bargaining team will meet to discuss once it is released to review the recommendation and determine next steps.
For a copy of the brief that we submitted to the Board, go to: http://psac.com/documents/bargaining/fb_brief_december6_2012-en.pdf.
