DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS:
A CONFERENCE CALL WAS HELD TODAY WITH THE CIRB THE ISSUES TO BE DETERMINED WERE WHEN AND WHERE A REPRESENTATIONAL VOTE WOULD TAKE PLACE AMONG OTHER ISSUES TO BE DETERMINED WAS VOTER ELIGIBLITY.
THE IAM & AW TOOK THE POSITION THAT ALL MEMBERS ON THE COMPANY
PAYROLL AS OF JANUARY 24, 2013 SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE.
THE CAW TOOK THE POSITION THAT ONLY THOSE ON THE COMPANY PAYROLL AS OF MARCH 09, 2012 WERE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE.

THE IAMAW BELIEVES THIS TO BE UNDEMOCRATIC AND PRESSED THE CIRB TO USE THE LIST AS OF JANUARY 24, 2013.
THE CIRB DECISION WAS THAT THESE POTENTIAL VOTERS WILL HAVE THEIR VOTES SEGREGATED AND THE CIRB WILL DECIDE AFTER THE VOTE TAKES PLACE IF THEY ARE NEEDED TO BE INCLUDED

THE DATE OF THE VOTE WILL BE THURSDAY FEBRUARY 21, 2013.

Chers confrères, Chères consoeurs, Le 1er février 2013, les membres de votre comité de négociation de l’AIMTA ont tenu une série de rencontres avec les représentants de la haute direction d’Air Transat. Ces réunions ont donné lieu à une proposition visant à réduire les coûts pour permettre la mise en service, à long terme, d’appareils à fuselage étroit. Dans les prochains jours, votre syndicat compte vous présenter cette proposition, sur laquelle vous serez ensuite appelés à voter. La date, les heures et le lieu de cette séance d’information vous seront communiqués sous peu. Surveillez nos prochains bulletins.Syndicalement,Les membres de votre comité de négociation / Your negotiations committee members: Georges Bujold Président général / General Chairperson District 140, AIMTA / IAMAW Mathieu Miller – Vancouver Herb Reiner – Toronto Sébastien Auger, Yves Constantin (observateur/observer), Steven St-Arnaud – Montréal |
Dear brothers and sisters, On February 1, 2013, members of your IAMAW negotiations committee met with Air Transat senior management for a series of meetings. These meetings resulted in a cost-reduction proposal to allow for the introduction of a narrow-body fleet on a long-term basis. In the coming days, your Union will present you with this proposal, on which you will then be required to vote. The date, times and location of this information session will be communicated to you shortly. Please stay tuned. In solidarity, |
Small Carriers Project
Dear Sisters and Brothers: The IAMAW would first like to thank the Company for taking the time to meet with its employees concerning the small carriers project. The Union and its members working at Air Transat support in principle the introduction of the narrow-body aircraft and the idea of reducing costs. However, after careful review of the Company’s current proposal, the negotiations committee has come to the conclusion that this project would have a negative impact on the membership’s working conditions. In addition, the Union has many other concerns. For all these reasons, the Company’s proposal has been rejected. Transportation District 140 has advised the Company of its position in writing, explaining that we believe other avenues need to be explored first. The Company has informed your Union that another meeting will take place on February 1, 2013, with the attendance of all the other unions representing members working at Air Transat.
We hope that Air Transat will take this opportunity to present us with a different proposal but, should this not be the case, the Union will maintain its position. Your Union invites its members working at Air Transat to submit any suggestions they may have to cut costs. Your suggestions can be forwarded to your Local Union Shop Chairperson at any time prior to February 1, 2013. The IAMAW appreciates your continued support. As more information regarding this matter becomes available, it will be communicated to the membership.
In solidarity, Your negotiations committee members:
Georges Bujold General Chairperson District 140, IAMAW Mathieu Miller – Vancouver Herb Reiner – Toronto Sébastien Auger, Yves Constantin (observer), Steven St-Arnaud – Montréal

Convention collective 2011 – 2016 |
2011 – 2016 Collective Agreement |
Chers confrères, Chères consoeurs, Comme vous le savez, la convention collective a été ratifiée en juin dernier. Toutefois, nous avons dû retarder son impression car nous sommes toujours en discussion avec la compagnie afin de clarifier un dernier point en litige au sujet de la période de repos. Dès que ce point sera réglé, nous procéderons à la signature et à l’impression de votre convention collective. Comme la convention collective est déjà ratifiée, cette signature est à des fins administratives seulement. Nous vous remercions de votre patience et de votre compréhension. Syndicalement, Les membres de votre comité de négociation / Your negotiations committee members: Georges Bujold Président général / General Chairperson District 140, AIMTA / IAMAW Mathieu Miller – Vancouver Herb Reiner – Toronto Sébastien Auger, Yves Constantin (observateur/observer), Steven St-Arnaud – Montréal |
Dear brothers and sisters, As you know, the collective agreement was ratified last June. However, we had to delay printing as we are still in discussions with the company to clarify one last issue in dispute concerning the crew rest. As soon as this issue is resolved, we will proceed with the signing and printing of your collective agreement. As the agreement is already ratified, the signing is for administrative purposes only. We thank you for your patience and your understanding.In solidarity |
