Attention Air Canada and Jazz Co-workers:
By now most of you have heard about the unilateral changes the company is making to the travel policy for both airlines, effective March 1, 2012.
According to management these changes are a return to "industry standard policy". In fact, our current travel policy is in direct relation to the many concessions made during the CCAA process in 2003, concessions which members’ working conditions still reflect.
Good labour relations are not achieved by management trying to use us as their piggy bank and trying to play us against each other through unequal travel policies.
It’s time we all say "Enough is Enough!" to these completely unnecessary and divisive changes to our travel policy.
Please print and sign the attached petition and return them to any union office so they can be presented to management from both airlines. Please have any Air Canada or Jazz worker sign the petition (irrespective of Union).
Make your voices heard that, irrespective of your union or employer, we are all united against this agenda!
For more information, please contact CAW Local 2002 Mobilisation and Strike Co-ordinator, Sean Smith
