Arbitrator upholds change to vacation entitlement policy
Part-time community health workers employed at home support centres in Kelowna and Salmon Arm, B.C., filed a joint grievance represented by the British Columbia Government and Service Employees Union (BCGEU) and the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) respectively. Of concern was that the part-time home care staff were not receiving the vacation entitlement they were owed.
