Other Business
YQX
CATCA removed non-op status from their members working in the schools
OTS would like a similar consideration
CATCA produced a FAQ document (see attached)
Students getting double time on Fridays? On training allowance is there overtime provisions?
Advantages of OTS being operational:
LIEU days
Paid lunch
May be an opportunity to clear up a few grievances with respect to evening shift work
YYZ
People haven’t really made a connection with the idea that CATCA school staff are now operational and therefore it hasn’t been a topic of discussion
See this as an opportunity to perhaps tie together evenings, job descriptions and classification?
People won’t want to be “operational” if it means losing their evening shift premium-unless that is somehow recognized
Many OTS seem unaware that by the CA they are day workers and that there is a cap on the evening shift premium
SID/STAR training for about 80% of control staff rolling out in February
YWG
Haven’t talked to OTS group recently, expect there will be concern over the new CATCA agreement
YEG
Remind OTS that being operational may also include midnights and weekend work at regular pay with small premiums
Want recognition through classification for ATOS working single stand
YVR
Echo’s YEG
3 new people in OTS group
1 new qualification in ATOS
