The Public Service Alliance of Canada had filed an unfair labour practice complaint against the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat.
For more than a year, PSAC has been working to get back to the table to discuss a new dental plan for more than 185,000 federal public service workers, but says it has faced continuous roadblocks and delays from government.
In June, PSAC filed an unfair labour practice complaint against the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat, arguing that the government violated a section of the Federal Public Sector Labour Relations Act outlining that parties have the duty to bargain in good faith. “After surveying members, receiving thousands of responses, and preparing a package of proposals, PSAC has been pushing the government to come to the table to begin negotiations for the dental plan,” PSAC said in a news release in August. “However, Treasury Board continues to delay talks to address the important issues our members have identified with their current plan.”
