PSAC and the Union of Taxation Employees (UTE) has served notice to begin bargaining with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) on behalf of 31,000 members across the country. This marks the first step in the collective agreement negotiation process.

The bargaining committee will be meeting at the end of July to review the demands that have been put forward by UTE locals and members, and the bargaining team will be chosen. Once demands have been assembled, PSAC-UTE will then contact the employer to schedule dates.  

From coast to coast to coast, at contact centres to tax services offices, national verification and collection centres, and tax centres, members are expecting the employer to come to the table to negotiate a fair contract that reflects the current working climate and acknowledges the importance of work-life balance.

The current collective agreement expires on October 31, 2025.

We will be keeping you up to date with our progress through this process.
