Speak Up: Telework that Works for Workers

 

The Treasury Board mandated all federal public service workers into the office at least three days per week effective September 9, 2024.

 

 

This decision was made without consultation or dialogue with the union and with no evidence-based research to support it.

 

CEIU opposes this misguided and unilateral decision. It breaks the trust of our members and violates their rights to collective bargaining.


Here’s what you can do:

 

1. Send a message to your department

 

Send an email to the Deputy Minister or chairperson for your department.

 

You can send a pre-generated letter or add a personal message to create further impact.

 

We've provided key points to highlight what matters most to you.

 

2. File a grievance

 

We encourage members impacted by the mandate to file individual grievances contesting their telework agreements.  

 

The Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) provide details of when a grievance should be filed and suggested wording in their FAQs.

 

You can access individual grievance forms on our website.
