CUPE 5430 is pleased to announce that after a review by the market supplement committee, a market supplement will be implemented for our members who work as Medical Radiation Technologists. This was a member driven process following a request through the Market Supplement Program under Letter of Understanding (LOU) #19. Their success was in part due to the information and support provided by members in this classification.
Between CUPE 5430, SGEU, and SEIU-West there are several classifications which are still in the review process, including nuclear medicine technologist, licensed practical nurse, continuing care assistant, and cytotechnologist. If you believe that your classification is facing significant barriers to recruitment, and there are ongoing unfilled vacancies, please review LOU #19 for the criteria and send your request to your regional office.
