Grievance on delayed CCA backpay resolved

The parties have settled a national-level grievance on the delay in retroactive payment to certain city carrier assistants following ratification of the 2016-2019 National Agreement.

In accordance with this settlement (M-01895), former CCA employees who converted to career status during the backpay period resulting from ratification of the 2016-2019 National Agreement who did not receive their retroactive pay on February 23, 2018 for their time spent as a CCA, will receive a one-time lump sum payment. 

The amount of the payment is determined by the length of time the employee was a CCA during the backpay period. The affected employees will receive the payments as follows; CCAs converted prior to February 18, 2017 will receive $50, CCAs converted between February 18, 2017 and May 27, 2017 will receive $100, and CCAs converted after May 27, 2017 will receive $150.
