Bargaining Priorities Part 2
Wages - Hospital workers do not have the right to strike. Disputes over collective agreements are settled by arbitration boards. Arbitrators will not adjust wages unless there is compelling evidence that an adjustment is required. Is there evidence that the wages of a specific classification should be adjusted?
Please provide any relevant evidence you believe exists for the wage adjustment you noted in the previous question. For example, there are higher wages for the same classification at a specific nearby hospital (if so what hospital) or there are specific demonstrated problems with recruitment and retention in this classification
In recent years, government cutbacks have meant that your wages have increased at less than the increases in the cost of living. What has this meant for you and your family?(check all that apply)
