Home and Community Care Support Services (HCCSS) Bargaining Updates

Updates

August 2, 2023

Your ONA Board and staff team have confirmed that 10 HCCSS branches will be heading to conciliation on November 15 and 16. Conciliation will be held in Toronto, face-to-face between your elected bargaining team and your employer representatives.

Conciliation is a process where your union and employer representatives, with the assistance of a mediator specialist from the Ministry of Labour, try to resolve the issues and come to a negotiated tentative agreement.

Your Bargaining Unit President will schedule meetings with HCCSS members during the week of November 20 after conciliation. These meetings will be an opportunity to provide updates and determine next steps if an agreement is not reached.
