COVID Schedule Extension
On March 20th the CATCA Executive Board and NAV Canada agreed to adopt modified schedules and suspend hours of work and scheduling provisions contained in the collective agreement. These modified schedules have been working well in most locations as traffic levels continue to remain well below pre-COVID levels.
As a result of the continued reduction in traffic levels, NAV Canada has approached CATCA and requested an extension to the March 20th LOU. The CATCA Executive Board has agreed to extend the ability to maintain the COVID schedules until the end of the published schedule that most closely aligns with November 30th but not earlier than November 2nd (click here for the LOU).
The Regional Vice Presidents will be working with the GMFIR’s and local branch executives to determine where current or modified COVID schedules will continue or if there is a requirement in some units or specialties to return to pre-COVID schedules.
The CATCA Executive Board would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your continued professionalism and cooperation during these challenging times.
On behalf of the Executive Board,
Doug Best
President
