IMPORTANT NEWS - December 9th, 2011
As previously reported the University has decided to appeal the arbitration in our favour in respect to the Christmas Holiday. They have filed for a judicial review and will be depositing their request at the Quebec Superior Court. Information regarding this decision is just below under the Notice dated November 4th, 2011.
In protest CUSSU is launching a campaign to denounce the University's decision - the theme of this campaign is Concordia, the Grinch who stole our Holidays. Next week we will be sending you postcards and posters with instructions on what to do for this campaign.
Here is the poster:
IMPORTANT NEWS - November 4th, 2011
We are delighted to announce that CUSSU won the grievances on the Christmas holidays. More specifically the Arbitrator’s decision states that the employer must revise the official holiday schedule to include January 4th, 2010, December 23rd, 2010, and January 3rd, 2011 as paid holidays.
The Arbitrator concluded that in accordance with article 25 - if one of the holidays mentioned in clause 25.01 falls on Saturday or a Sunday, the holiday is moved to the preceding or to the following work day BUT that preceding or following day cannot be a day when the University is already closed.
The Union will be asking to meet with the employer shortly to discuss compensation for these days and the holiday schedule for this year.
