The YUFA collective agreement expires at the end of April 2024. 

YUFA's bargaining team has begun to meet the Employer in the early stages of negotiations to achieve a renewal of the collective agreement. At the urging of the Employer, two meetings will take place on April 2 and April 23 where we anticipate receiving some non-monetary proposals from the Employer and to discuss preliminaries of the bargaining process. 

YUFA has signaled to the Employer that we intend to present our proposals at a later date, in line with the process mandated by our constitution and by-laws, which include a package of bargaining proposals that have been approved by Stewards' Council and members at a General Membership Meeting.

YUFA will update members on a regular basis about the scheduling of meetings for approving bargaining proposals and also about developments at the bargaining table.
