PSAC National Training on Essential Services (ESA) for FB Members

PSAC-CIU members in the FB group are strongly encouraged to take part in a national essential services training session.

This training will provide members with an overview of the Essential Services Agreement PSAC signed in 2021. We will discuss the implications for members whose position and/or duties have been designated essential and will provide concrete advice on what to do if you are designated essential. Then tools will be provided to deal with any potential job action.

The sessions will be held using Zoom and here will be an opportunity for members to ask questions. The training is open to all members in the FB unit.
