At the completion of the review which will study sick time, service delivery and staffing, all unions will be notified of any impact on their members. Changes in services and layoffs are a possibility but none have been confirmed at this point for registered nurses.

NBNU Conducting Bargaining Survey of Nursing Home Nurses
Tuesday, 17 January 2012 11:04 In preparation for nursing home negotiations, NBNU is conducting a telephone survey to determine priorities for the nursing home negotiating committee. The survey, which began January 13, will continue for a three-week period. As well, NBNU sent out a survey to nursing home local presidents to find out what your top bargaining priorities are and to give us information about working conditions. We encourage all members of the nursing home bargaining unit to participate in the telephone survey and for local presidents to return their surveys to NBNU provincial office. Your participation in these surveys is important to the success of the next round of negotiations. Scholarship Recipients
