Sign the petition to demand the government repeal the three-day in-office mandate and move to the promised case-by-case framework for telework, rather than the one-size-fits-none model they have committed to. We also want them to enshrine this policy into our collective agreements during the next round of bargaining. 

PSAC members from the PA, SV, TC, FB or EB bargaining units who applied for and were denied 699 leave between November 9, 2020 and April 1, 2022 may be eligible to apply for reconsideration. 

The following op-ed by PSAC National President Sharon DeSousa was published by The Hill Times on August 6, 2024.

Today, the Coalition Against Workplace Discrimination, of which the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) is a member, released an internal report obtained through the Access to Information Act, which revealed blatant and widespread discrimination at the Privy Council Office (PCO). The federal government is Canada’s largest single employer, and it relies on the Privy Council Office to manage the public service, while also supporting the Prime Minister and the federal Cabinet. As such, the findings are extremely troubling, and a concern to all Canadians. 

PSAC is incredibly disappointed that Treasury Board is attempting to delay pay equity justice for workers in the federal public service by requesting a three-year extension to post their final equity plan for the federal public service.
