Central/Local 815 Bargaining Update

Updated: Apr 22

65,000 Ontario hospital workers represented by the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions – CUPE (OCHU-CUPE) and SEIU Healthcare will see a 6% wage increase (3% wage increases in each of the next two years), improvements to health and dental benefits, enhancements to weekend, evening, and night premiums, and pay for periods of quarantine or isolation due to outbreaks of communicable illnesses.

This comes as a result of an intensive round of coordinated bargaining and almost identical, two-year arbitrated contracts awarded by Arbitrator William Kaplan to OCHU-CUPE and SEIU Healthcare on Thursday.


What does this mean for Local 815?

At this time, Halton Healthcare has not agreed to participate in Central Bargaining with Local 815. Therefore we will not be immediately seeing the results of this award. (See the Attached FAQ on Central Bargaining).


However, our Local Bargaining Committee is eager to get to the table with the hospital and achieve these same increases for members of our local. Our Bargaining team will be meeting during the spring to prepare our proposals, and hopefully be able to meet with the hospital in the summer months to negotiate a new collective agreement for Local 815.
