Letter of Understanding #20, Re: Job Security, which also originally expired on March 31 and will now continue in effect until October 15, guarantees there will be no layoffs of Direct Nursing employees represented by UNA under the agreement until the letter’s expiry date.
Since its inception, AHS has highlighted the efficiencies that have been realized, from both a cost and quality perspective, by publicly administering programs through a single province-wide health system. UNA strongly encourages AHS to apply this same logic to the provision of home care services in Alberta. — Heather Smith, President, UNA
