If one of the parties requests a meeting for a specific purpose or purposes, the other party agrees on a time, date and place. All meetings will be held on the premises of the Company at a time and for a period to be determined by mutual agreement. In 1981, Canada Post moved from a department to a Crown corporation, responding to a long-standing demand from the union. It was hoped that relations between Canada Post and its union would improve through the transformation of a Crown corporation governed by the Canada Labour Code. Although strikes were less frequent, there were alternating strikes in 1987 and 1991 against plans to privatize post offices, both of which were ended by a return-to-work law and also saw attempts by Canada Post to break the strike with scabs. An assignment exists within a classification and a post office and is defined as: (a) the interpretation, application or alleged violation of the collective agreement, including disciplinary measures and termination of the employment relationship; Whenever the company provides seniority lists to the local association in accordance with the previous clause, a copy of the relevant seniority lists will be posted in each postal institution. A collective agreement is a written legal contract that covers employees who are grouped in a bargaining unit. The agreement is concluded through collective bargaining between the union and the employer. The agreements include significant improvements and commitments to Canada Post, including salary increases. (a) the local agreement does not conflict with that collective agreement; (c) `Union xxxxxxx` means a postal worker appointed or elected by the Union as an authorised representative of the Union. (a) if the provisions of clause 13.09 have been complied with and a position remains, it shall be filled by a temporary agency worker who has requested such classification and a post office in accordance with section 44.

Collective agreements usually include wages and benefits. They also include job descriptions and classifications, as well as a dispute resolution procedure (usually a complaint and arbitration procedure). A worker who is or has been on leave under a provision of the collective agreement shall not be upset or sanctioned because he or she is or has been on leave, unless it has been established that the employee has unfairly exploited the provisions of the collective agreement. 9.07 Both Parties acknowledge that an employee accompanied by a xxxxxxx trade union, if he so wishes, has the right to discuss with his superior any matter or complaint relating to his conditions of employment, including those governed by the provisions of this Agreement, without prejudice to the right of the union to subsequently use the complaint procedure. 9.26 The Corporation`s response must be sufficiently clear to determine the relationship between the collective agreement, the complaint, and the Corporation`s decision.
9.44 Immediately after the signing of this Agreement and at regular intervals thereafter, the Parties shall enter into agreements with each arbitrator to establish in advance a list of hearing days for each month of the year. The number of days so determined by all arbitrators in an area must allow sufficient time to quickly resolve all complaints from that area. In case of disagreement between the parties on the number of days or the precise dates that an arbitrator sets for the parties, he will decide. Remuneration is granted to full-time employees in staff post offices. Any signed agreement resulting from local consultation in accordance with the above clause will be accurately recorded in the minutes of the meeting and will govern the relationship between the parties in the jurisdiction for which such an agreement was entered into, subject to the following conditions: In 1989, the Canadian Labour Relations Board forced most Canada Post employees to join a union. Until then, CUPW represented only “internal employees”, with the Canada Factors Union representing “outside employees” and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers representing smaller units of skilled workers within the post office. After a vote, cupw was chosen as the only union to represent the combined collective bargaining unit. On a monthly basis, the lists of requests for each classification in a post office are forwarded to the organization: if the parties cannot agree on a matter subject to consultation in accordance with clause 8.04, that matter will be referred to an arbitrator listed in the current collective agreement for arbitration.
