Public Service Alliance of Canada

Workers and unions across Canada are continuing to push back against arbitrary return-to-office mandates that ignore the realities of modern work. 

On April 28, workers across Canada mark the National Day of Mourning. We remember those who have been injured, made ill, or killed because of their work, and we recommit to fighting for the living.  

Applications for the 2026 PSAC Scholarship Program are now open! 

Every year on April 24, workers and trade unions in Bangladesh and around the world mark the anniversary of the collapse of the Rana Plaza building in Dhaka, Bangladesh, in memory of over 3,000 workers killed or injured in the collapse and to ensure it never happens again.  

The federal government is challenging an important legal victory for Black public service workers. After a major decision by the Canadian Human Rights Commission (The Commission) to refer our systemic racism complaint to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal (The Tribunal), the government is now attempting to overturn it through the Federal Court. 

The federal government’s new Early Retirement Incentive (ERI) program is now in effect. ERI notices were sent to employees of the Governments of Nunavut and Northwest Territories. Employees of the Office of the Auditor General (OAG), the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), and certain federal museums and art galleries also participate in the PSSA and may be eligible for ERI. 

Please note that registration is now closed. 

The 2026 PSAC National Young Workers Conference will be held November 7-9, 2026, in Ottawa under the theme Young Workers: Taking Power, Challenging Norms.
