CRPEG President Jonathan Fitzpatrick has expressed, in a letter (attached) to PIPSC President Debi Daviau, concern regarding a potential strike by PIPSC NCR staff who will be in a legal strike position on March 19, 2014.
“CRPEG supports fair treatment of the PIPSC staff, and recommends that PIPSC offer a non-zero economic adjustment to staff that protects their wages against inflation and recognizes the value of their work in support of PIPSC members.
It would be hypocritical for CRPEG to ask the employer for an economic adjustment for ourselves while the PIPSC staff, who support our negotiations and employee relations, are offered less.”
