THE Canadian Museum for Human Rights isn’t open yet, but those who already work for it have a union.
The Canadian Industrial Relations Board on Tuesday granted the Public Service Alliance of Canada certification to represent all non-managerial museum employees.
“There’s been employees for the past year,” PSAC regional organizer Veronique Allard said from Ottawa.
She said 30 of the 55 workers employed to date will be members of the bargaining unit. She said other museums of comparable size and scope have between 100 and 200 employees.
In Winnipeg, workers at the museum need to choose an executive, establish bylaws and bargain for a first collective agreement, Allard said. The museum workers have a good relationship with their federal Crown corporation employer, she said. “There are no really contentious issues at this point.”
