Your NUREG Bargaining team is pleased and proud to announce that on Monday December 18, 2017, NUREG and the CNSC signed NUREG’s first ever Member Ratified collective agreement. This is an historic event. We thank the CNSC for pushing the agreement through the approval process with the government so we could sign before Christmas. We thank each and every one of you for all your help and support along the way. 

The 120 day time period to issue retro checks and to implement our new salaries starts as of the day of signing.

Note from the Employer

As you are aware, NUREG members recently ratified the tentative agreement that was reached on September 7, 2017. The CNSC is working quickly and diligently through the required steps to be able to formally sign this agreement with the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada (PIPSC).

To be in a position to formally sign the collective agreement, the CNSC must have Governor in Council approval. This requires various documents and pre-approvals that must be sought from both Treasury Board Secretariat and Justice Canada.
