Collective Agreement Bargaining 2025
Our Current Collective Agreement was ratified on January 24, 2022 and covers the period from July 1, 2021 to June 30,2025. This means that we are now beginning bargaining with the employer for a new Collective Agreement. We will post regular updates here so you can stay informed. The latest update will be posted here, with a full list on the main Bargaining page. Please check that main page for full details! See also the side bar on this page.
Due to the recent changes to the membership, we kindly ask that all members share your updated personal email with the CUEFA communcations team to receive future correspondence.

Bargaining Update: February 1, 2026
Please see full details and all updates on the main Bargaining page.
- After two full days of mediation last week (Jan. 28 and 30) following the previous two meetings earlier in the month (Jan. 8 and 9), mediation has ended and CUEFA has asked to be written out.
- This decision was taken following an impasse reached by the Employer and the Bargaining Team on key outstanding issues of significance to the membership:
- Intellectual Property (Article 17);
- Salary (Article 16 & ASO Article 36);
- ASO Work Assignments (Articles 37-41);
We know there will be many questions; therefore, it is important for members to attend the upcoming CUEFA Meeting the week of February 2.
