We Need Your Help: Input On Various Classifications

Arbitrator James Dorsey has scheduled the dates of February 2nd to February 6th for the continuation of the hearing arising from Bill 1 (the Health Authorities Act).

Over that five-day period, Mr. Dorsey will hear submissions from the four unions and the employer regarding the placement of classifications/jobs within the four bargaining units (Nursing, Health Care, Support and Clerical).

Mr. Dorsey has reserved judgment on deciding which bargaining unit the following classifications/jobs shall be placed (please see the list at the bottom of this email). We are asking you to please review this list.

If your classification/job is part of this list we ask that you email the NSGEU as soon as possible (inquiry@nsgeu.ca) and provide us with the following information (please keep your answers as brief as possible):

• Your name & job title/classification;
• What functions do you perform that are directly or indirectly related to the assessment and treatment of patients?
• What functions do you perform that involve regular collaboration with other members providing patient care?
• What work do you perform that is unique to the provision of health services (ie. work that would not performed anywhere else but in health services)?

To ensure our submissions are ready for the continuation of the hearing, your responses must be received by no later than noon Wednesday, January 28th.

Thank you in advance for your assistance with this very important project! We will keep you updated as this process unfolds.
