What you need to know
As a PSAC member working for the Treasury Board - FB Group, you will be voting on a tentative agreement with your employer between April 16 and May 31, 2018.
If you wish to vote, you must ensure that you are a member in good standing and that the union has an up to date mailing address for you. If you have not done this yet, please update your information here. This vote will be conducted electronically, and we need to ensure that only those entitled receive the PIN number required to cast a vote.
This is an electronic vote through Intellivote. PIN#s were issued via email and/or through Canada Post last week to members. The members will be able to vote on their phones etc during a window of time determined by Intellivote after they are registered by Admin as having attended an information session. There is training just about to start as outlined on the on-line calendar all about the FB Electronic vote process if you are able to join.
Member in Good Standing
Due to a Phoenix pay system problem, members who ought to be in good standing have been rendered not in good standing because their dues have abruptly stopped (despite their continued employment). Unfortunately, it is impossible for Membership Administration to determine if dues have stopped due to a Phoenix glitch or if the member is on leave, retired, etc.
In order to properly determine voting entitlement for upcoming vote; it is imperative that members who are in good standing be correctly reflected as such. A new online form is now available whereby a member can request to remain in good standing in absence of union dues. The same form will serve for both members who are on leave from their substantive position and subject to the PSAC Constitution Section 4, Sub-Section (2) (a) to (k), and the members who have seen their dues cease because of a Phoenix problem.
Membership Administration will receive, process and respond to the Phoenix-related requests. The Executive Office will receive, process and respond to the non-Phoenix-related requests to remain in good standing as is the usual process under the PSAC Constitution.
If you have difficulty updating your information, contact your PSAC Regional Office.
If you updated your information with us, it's two days before the scheduled information meeting and you still have not received a PIN for the vote, contact our Treasury Board - FB Group vote hotline: 1-833-223-2659.

*The summary of the tentative agreement and the ratification kit are available in attachments below.*
As per PSAC Regulation 15, you must attend an informational session to be eligible to cast your vote. Attendance will be tracked and only those who attend will have their member profile updated on the eVoting system, enabling them to vote. PINS will become active one (1) hour after the end of your meeting.
