MEMBER SERVICES
Services Overview
NLNU strives to ensure fair and equitable working conditions for the province’s registered nurses. We’re committed to protecting the rights of our members, and offer a wide range of benefits and services to meet their needs.
Collective Agreement Negotiations
Negotiating a collective agreement that protects the rights of members, individually and collectively, is the primary purpose of NLNU. A collective agreement sets out issues such as pay, hours of work, rest periods between shifts, sick leave and holidays. Throughout its history, NLNU has negotiated many collective agreements with each being a step towards a better life for nurses and patients, clients and residents.
All NLNU members are represented by one of six collective agreements.
Grievance, Mediation & Arbitration Representation
NLNU offers assistance to members in the filing of grievances. We also represent members in mediation and arbitration. NLNU’s labour relations team, as well shop stewards and branch representatives are equipped with resources and training to assist members in this process.
Education
NLNU is a dynamic learning organization. We provide a variety of educational opportunities for members’ continued professional development, and also offer training and orientation for members and volunteers. In addition, we offer a number of reference and education materials, such as the Collective Agreement CLARITY, a publication that provides interpretations of collective agreement articles.
Research
Proposed solutions and ideas supported by the facts: that is NLNU’s approach to achieving a quality health care system. We look at health care from every angle, exploring key issues and putting together solid background materials and proposals aimed at improving the system and enhancing the livelihood, safety and well-being of registered nurses.
