Dear NAPE Home and Youth Care member,

As you are aware, NAPE has reached tentative agreements with the following employers:
 
‘Group of 20’:
A Better Living, Bettercare, Comfort Home Care, Compassion Home Care, Exploits Home Care, Helping Hands, Horwood’s, Home Care, Loving Hands, Maximum Home Support, Notre Dame Home Care, Your Home Care Services, Provincial (Eastern), Quality Home Care, Rosemore Home Care, Serenity Home Care, Total Nursing Care, Provincial (Central), All Care Home Support, In-Home, Health Care, and the Best of Care.
 
Tender Loving Care (TLC)
Angel’s Touch
Caring Hands
South Coast Home Care
 
We are still at the bargaining table with Caregivers Inc.- Blue Sky / Caregivers / Momentum, and Home Sweet Home Care Agency Inc. We are hopeful that we can find a resolution at the table for these remaining groups very soon.
 
Now that your union has reached a tentative agreement – home and youth care workers need to attend ratification vote meetings to see the agreement, ask questions and cast their secret ballot vote to either accept or reject the agreement.
 
At the end of the day, the decision lies with home and youth care workers.
 
Your bargaining teams are recommending that members accept the agreements.
 
As you can imagine, organizing votes for this size of a group in communities across the province is a massive undertaking. We have set up a voting schedule but are still working on the locations for each vote.
 
The vote schedule is posted above.
 
Votes begin on the west coast on Monday, January 20, 2020.
Please check back to the link above for updates as we will be filling in the vote locations as they are booked. We wanted to get as much info out to you as quickly as possible.
 
If you have any questions, please contact Home and Youth Care Lead Negotiator David Healey at dhealey@nape.ca or by phone, toll-free at: 1-800-563-4442
 
It’s your union, it’s your agreement, so please make every effort to get out to have your voice heard at the ratification vote meetings.
 
In solidarity,
 
Frank Pittman
NAPE Labour Relations Specialist (Home Care, Private Sector, Municipalities)
