7 BCPSEA & BC Teachers Federation
8 1987 Right to bargain local bargaining local agreements (now 60) 1994 Korbin Commission - All of broad public sector - Resulted in creation of BCPSEA - Resulted in provincial bargaining
9 BCPSEA accredited bargaining agent - Authority to bargain on behalf of boards BCTF accredited bargaining agent - 75 individual certifications cancelled - 1 provincial certification held by BCTF Task = Bargain 1 master agreement
10 BCPSEA says Blank Slate - Start from scratch BCTF says Why lose what we fought for - Cherry pick the best provisions Task = Bargain 1 master agreement No transition plan was built in to the task Compensation mandate/wage limits
11 8 rounds of provincial bargaining 1 provincial agreement - Handful of common articles - 60 sets of local language appended to provincial agreement - Superior provisions Local bargaining (Appendix 2) - No right to strike locally
12 23 years No Master Agreement Numerous strikes including 1 illegal strike Most Employers want master agreement Union wants local bargaining back Provincial government financial objectives addressed Local operational objectives largely unmet
13 Two tiered systems don t work Use provincial approach or local approach Disclaimer Views expressed are solely those of the presenter and are not those of his Board or views expressed by the current or past governments.
14 Requires master agreement Requires a transition plan Resolution mechanism that ensures a final master agreement is achieved - Political stakes too high for voluntary agreement - Requires winners and losers
15 Structure relatively easy to implement local collective agreements largely already in place Requires provincial coordination - to prevent whipsawing - to contain costs
16 Possible coordination mechanisms - Provincial mandate to govern employers - Common bargaining team/spokesperson - Required provincial ratification body
17 BCPSEA & Support Staff Bargaining Unions
18 1959 present local bargaining 1994 BCPSEA accredited as bargaining agent Union certificate still held locally BCPSEA delegates authority to bargain BCPSEA ratifies for employer Compensation mandate/wage limits
19 Round of Bargaining 2010 Olympics desired labour peace Provincial incentives Provincial framework Local parties sign on - voluntary
20 Union realized this process was the only way to get extras This process creates buy in on financial mandate Unions agree to compensation mandate in exchange for its acceptance
21 Two tiered dilemma - Once money is known/made public: No monetary leverage to get changes Only have language to trade for language - Starting to see operational language become stale
22 Go provincial or go local Local currently works - add coordination mechanisms High Level Provincial Framework - Policy initiatives such as: Training/Professional Development Apprenticeships Employee Certification (Education Assistants)
23 Positive Labour Relations Across Canada Joanne Simoneau-Polenz Director, Labour Relations Department Quebec English School Boards Association
24 The negotiations process in the education sector is governed by two laws: An Act respecting the process of negotiation of the collective agreements in the public and parapublic sectors (Bill 37) Quebec Labour Code, specifically section The Act provides for two levels of negotiations: Provincial and Local Provincial negotiations are grouped into two categories: Intersectorial and Sectorial
25 Intersectorial Education Health Public Service
26 Intersectorial referred to as the Central Table Subjects of negotiation Salary parameters Pension plans Parental rights Regional disparities
27 Sectorial Level Subjects of negotiation Union prerogatives Conditions of employment Workload and its organization Grievances and arbitration
28 There are 5 Management Negotiating Committees in the education sector (Comité Patronal de négociation) CPNCA CPNCF CPNC CPNCSC CPNCSK
29 The CPNCA s mandate is to organize and coordinate provincial sectorial-level negotiations QESBA Represents interests of the Association and of the nine English School Boards MEES Represents interests of the Ministry and the government as the paying agent for collective agreement costs
30 Teaching Staff Local agreements based on 28 matters listed in the Act (Bill 37) These matters remain in force until they are amended, repealed or replaced following agreement between the parties Nonteaching Professionals and Support Staff Local arrangements allow school boards and unions to amend clauses negotiated at the sectorial level They remain in force until a new collective agreement is signed
