Official mail: www.acep-cape.ca/en/news-events/general-membership-news/the-signing-of-the-ec-and-tr-collective-agreements/ The most recent agreement was signed in August 2019 and is valid until 21 June 2022. The latest EC collective agreement contains updated provisions: in 2017, the Federal Public Sector Labour Relations and Employment Board decided that CIVILIAN members of the RCMP, classified as ESS, who essentially perform work similar to that of EC officials, should be considered civil servants. When this Decision enters into force, the workers of the SEA will be subject to the EC collective agreement and will be considered as part of the EC bargaining unit. Until then, the existing rcmp general conditions for SSS members will remain in force. However, these members are entitled to certain CAPE benefits, including assistance in filing complaints and representation in discussions with the Treasury Board Secretariat. Please note that special provisions have been negotiated during the current cycle to address the issue of implementing retroactive compensation and adjusting salary scales. Note that between 2001 and 2007, published staff information notices are available through the Canada Administration Web Archive website. . . .
