Collective Agreement

Your Collective Agreement is the basis of your employee-employer relationship with the school board. It defines:

  • your rights
  • the union’s rights
  • the board’s rights
  • definitions
  • basic procedures for the sides to follow regarding issues such as assignments, filing a grievance, harassment, salary scales, seniority, rates of pay, your personnel file, evaluation procedures, supervision, and preparation time.
LOU No. 17 – Memorandum of Agreement – Schedule A – School District No. 39 (Vancouver)
