flag PSAC demands the federal government halt its unilateral early retirement plan, calling it unlawful and a breach of collective bargaining rights.

flag The Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) is urging the federal government to halt its new early retirement program for public servants, alleging it was launched unilaterally without required union consultations. flag The union filed a grievance, arguing the plan bypasses collective bargaining and undermines its role as a bargaining agent. flag Announced in the budget, the $1.5 billion initiative targets civil servants over 50 and aims to reduce the workforce by 2029, but remains pending royal assent. flag PSAC insists any early retirement program must be negotiated, lawful, and respect workers’ rights, while the government has only sent informational letters to about 68,000 potential applicants.
