It is with pleasure that we announce that you, APS members, voted at 94,59% in favor of the agreement in priniciple.
The new collective agreement will therefore come into force on April 1, 2025, and will expire on March 31, 2029.
It is important to note that all of the new provisions that have been negotiated will only apply from April 1, 2025.
Salary increases
The only exception to the above is the 2% salary increase, which will come into effect on July 1, 2024. This means that you will be entitled to a retroactive payment of this salary increase which will be paid to you before April 1, 2025. This salary increase will be paid to all APS members.
A second salary increase of 1.2% will take place on April 1, 2025. This will also be paid to all APS members.
Then, a third salary increase of 1.5% will take place in June 2025. This will be applied in accordance with the current procedure based on performance evalutation.
Official signing date
The parties will meet on February 24, 2025 for the official signing of the future collective agreement. This event is formal, the agreement having already been made official by your favorable vote.
