During its meeting last week, the National Executive Board (NEB) discussed the framework required to achieve an hourly rate for RSMCs and reviewed applications from members who wish to join the RSMC Hourly Rate Committee.
The NEB decided to set up two committees: a working committee and a steering committee.
Sister Nancy Beauchamp, National Director for the Metro-Montreal Region will chair both committees. For the Steering Committee, she will be supported by Brothers Carl Girouard, National Grievance Officer, and Martin Champagne, 4th National Vice-President and work measurement expert, as well as Sister Barb McMillan, National Union Representative, Grievance and Arbitration. The Steering Committee will lead our efforts on the RSMC hourly rate as well as the technical discussions with the employer.
