Since the Collective Agreement is a lengthy legal document it can be quite dense and difficult to understand for many members. For this reason, we’ve tried to simplify many of the benefits afforded to you.

In particular, it’s important to understand the application of sick leaves, how your vacation is calculated, and how your pension operates.
