The Saskatchewan Health Authority sent out an announcement to all staff today regarding the AIMS system. Implementation has been paused.

We will keep you informed of any updates.

This is what came from the Employer:

November 4, 2022:

In order to ensure that scheduling and payroll continues to occur without disruption, a decision has been made to pause the rollout of the AIMS system.

Effective this morning, we will be using our existing systems and processes that were in place prior to October 23rd. This includes scheduling and time entry (e.g. WRAs, time card app).

Additional communication will be sent with further instructions and information as soon as possible. We want to thank everyone for their work and patience as we work towards the modernization of these systems.

Almost 200 health care workers from across Saskatchewan gathered in Prince Albert for CUPE 5430’s annual general meeting.

“Health care providers are facing extraordinary challenges in Saskatchewan: short staffing, inflation, retention and quality of care just to name a few,” said Bashir Jalloh, president of CUPE 5430 and a nuclear medicine technologist.  “Members are being run off their feet because there is simply not enough staff.  We have seen bed closures, emergency room closures and service disruptions.”

Dear CUPE Local 5430 member:

We have been receiving a lot of questions from the membership regarding this holiday. And, to be honest, we spent a bit of time absolutely sure that it is a statutory holiday and that Article 28.01 of our collective agreement applies. Late in the day on Wednesday, September 14^th the employer sent us a letter telling us the employer will not be honouring the day as a paid holiday.

They told us that Monday will be a regular working day for all employees of the SHA and that, “Employees are asked to recognize the significance of (the Queen’s) legacy and passing in their own ways, as they feel appropriate.”
