REGINA — eHealth workers in Saskatchewan have been without a contact since Sept. 30, 2022 but that changed this week.
A memorandum of agreement between eHealth Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Government and General Employees' Union (SGEU) Local 1579 has been ratified by both parties.
The agreement provides annual wage increases of three per cent, three per cent and 1.67 per cent. The renewed collective agreement is effective from Oct. 1, 2022 to Sept. 30, 2025.
SGEU Local 1579 represents about 650 employees of eHealth Saskatchewan. The majority provide IT and related support to the health system province-wide; others provide health cards and vital statistics services, or work in administrative and other organizational support roles.
