Canada Post Finally Provides a Timeline for Employees on Workers Compensation Board (WCB) for the Retroactive Period - It has been 11 months since the “phase 3” retro payment for pay equity was paid out by CPC. Following this payment, CPC was to work on getting payment to RSMCs who were off work on Injury on Duty (IOD) and receiving payment from provincial WCB. This impacts over 1,000 RSMCs. The Union has been pushing CPC to provide us with information about this payment since the award was rendered. CPC has finally provided the Union with an estimated timeline.

Following many discussions with Canada Post representatives and after reviewing the arbitration decision, in great detail, some clarifications to the June 18, 2020 Bulletin (#152) are required. Arbitrator MacPherson’s award only covers hours worked in excess of 40 hours a week. It also includes a trigger to have access to overtime payment.
Wednesday August 19 2020
The new Collective Agreements imposed by Arbitrator MacPherson address some of our concerns, but also leave some major issues unresolved. This award is a great example of how we cannot resolve our issues with compulsory arbitration. We need free collective bargaining and the right to strike. These rights have always been the power behind our major contractual gains.
Wednesday July 15 2020
On June 11, 2020, Arbitrator MacPherson imposed wage increases for the four (4) years of both urban and RSMC collective agreements of 2%, 2%, 2.5% and 2.9%. Retirees who worked at CPC after February 1st, 2018 for Urban and after January 1st, 2018 for RSMCs are also entitled to retroactivity on all the time paid after these dates as the case may be.
Friday July 10 2020
Following the publication of the arbitration award of Arbitrator MacPherson, Canada Post management formally requested that she correct her award with respect to the monetary increases for the variable allowance (householder delivery) and the knowledge sort and civic address allowance.
