Policy Grievances

Abuse of Management Rights (PBS and Language Assignment)

Dear Members,

The Union has filed Policy Grievance, CHQ-19-54 (Click HERE to view).

This Policy Grievance is regarding the Company’s failure to respect seniority rights ​of those with languages.  Currently, the Company’s language requirements are unreasonable and as a result it is causing rampant unstacking ​on our language qualified cabin crew members.

The Union knows how hard our members work, and we expect the Company to abide by its obligations to respect the seniority of all cabin personnel including those with languages.

B3.02, Pairing Changes Prior to Bid Deadline

Dear Members,

The Union has filed Policy Grievance, CHQ-19-55 (Click HERE to view).

This Policy Grievance is regarding the Company’s failure to respect the bid deadline by not providing reasonable notice ​when making revisions to pairings.  For the October 2019 block month, Air Canada published revisions approximately 10 hours prior to the bid deadline.

The Union knows how hard our members work, and we expect the Company to abide by its obligations to publish revisions in a timely fashion.

In Solidarity,

Wesley Lesosky
President, Air Canada Component of CUPE
