Recent media coverage
02 April 2013
Two interesting media articles were recently published. The first deals with a report that the Federal Government has quietly awarded MP's a pay increase. It is somewhat confusing that the Government can do this but cannot find the will to negotiate in good faith with our Union. Our Negotiation Team has enjoyed success in their Global Agreement discussions with CSC but we continue to wait for the Treasury Board to get themselves organised for the conciliation process. Stall tactic designed to test our patience????

In a separate media article, reference is made to an internal CSC survey suggesting that our workplace is a particularly toxic one in which discrimination and harrassment occurs far too often. Please click on each link to read the articles

Smith Inquest begins in Toronto

Extensive media coverage will be given to this event. Members are encouraged to support our colleagues involved in this lengthy and traumatic inquest and are also encouraged to read the Union's report, A Rush to Judgment, on this tragic and highly preventable death.

On the Brink .....
10 December 2012

“All you have to do is take a look at the number of incidents we have and a look at the number of double-bunking.” Jason Godin, Regional President UCCO-SACC-CSN

Greg Burchell, Assistant Editor of Canadian Occupational Health and Safety News takes a look at our prison system in light of the dramatic increase in double bunking and the negative impact it has on the safety of our workplace both at the provincial and federal levels.

A Message from our Regional President
02 October 2012
Today, Bill C-446 received its first reading in Parliament. This proposed legislation would give CSC employees the right to apply to court to have blood samples taken from an inmate when the employee has come into contact with a bodily substance of the inmate.

This is legislation that we have been proposing and lobbying hard for since 2005.

I would thank all those who participated in our Blood Samples video/campaign especially Officer Kelly Tatton from Millhaven who had the courage to tell her story.

Collectively we win battles. Well done all!
