À ceux qui ont été impactés par les problèmes de codage des jours fériés des vacances de Noël, je suis en contact permanent avec la directrice par intérim des relations de travail de Telus depuis la veille de Noël. Je suis reconnaissante aux nombreux membres qui ont signalé ce problème et pour tous les courriels que j’ai reçus. Je suis parfaitement consciente de votre frustration et des perturbations que cela a provoqué dans vos vies. C’est pourquoi depuis le 24 décembre, la directrice par intérim et moi-même travaillons à résoudre ce problème très important.
Nous venons d’avoir à nouveau une très longue conversation et elle m’a assurée que chaque scénario et problème sont passés en revue un par un. Il est important de souligner la complexité du problème, qui ne se limite pas qu’à une erreur de codage des jours fériés.
J’aurai beaucoup plus d’informations à partager dans le courant de la semaine prochaine en ce qui concerne les corrections effectuées. En attendant, j’ai jugé important de vous informer que nous travaillons avec Telus pour répondre correctement et le plus rapidement possible à vos préoccupations, mais également que nous nous assurons que Telus mette en place des mécanismes pour éviter que cette situation ne se reproduise à l’avenir.
Merci pour votre patience et restez à l’affût pour un rapport complet et de plus amples détails au cours de la semaine prochaine.
Solidarité,
Donna Hokiro, Présidente par intérim La Section locale 1944 du Syndicat des Métallos
To those affected by the coding issues regarding the statutory holidays of the Christmas break, I have been in constant contact with the Acting Director of Telus Labour Relations since Christmas Eve day. I am grateful for the many members who have flagged this as an issue and for all of the emails I have received. I am acutely aware of your frustration and the disruption in your lives that this has caused. This is why since December 24th, the Acting Director and myself have been working on this very important issue.
We have again just concluded a very lengthy conversation and she assures me that each scenario and issue is being gone through one by one. The complexity is noteworthy and not limited to just being a statutory holiday miscoding.
I will have a lot more information to share next week with respect to the corrections being made but in the meantime I felt it important to let you know that we are working with Telus to resolve your concerns correctly and as quickly as possible, but as importantly, to see that Telus puts into place a mechanism so that this does not reoccur in the future.
Your patience is appreciated and stay tuned for a fulsome accounting and more details next week.
Our contracts for the Professional Staff and Support Staff at LSCHC were set to expire at the end of the year. But we have signed an agreement with the company extending both contracts on a month to month basis while we try to initiate contract negotiations under the conditions of the pandemic and LSCHC's computer crisis. We are working on coming up with dates to start negotiations, and will keep you posted on that. In the meantime, your old contracts are still in effect.
