Local 97 – Registered Nurses at Capital Health Collective Agreement Signed

This is to advise the members of Local 97 that the tentative agreement you ratified has now been signed by both the union and your employer, which means you officially have a new contract in place. You should receive the retro pay that is owed to you over the coming weeks.

Important note: For members of the bargaining unit who have resigned or retired since October 31st, 2012 (the date your last collective agreement expired), you have 30-days from the date of signing (October 24th) to apply for retroactive wage increases.

Thank you for your ongoing patience and support during this difficult round of negotiations.
