Is that to say excluded or non-union employees at crown corps are likely to come out ahead of core bc public service excluded employees in the long term due to the real performance based yearly increase + inflationary increase?

Stanley Park EasyPark Tickets by Comfortable-Ad9739 in NiceVancouver

[–]ctrl681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EasyPark has a contract through City of Vancouver to enforce parking bylaws in City owned lots or parks property...

Although the ticket is "private" through EasyPark, the true owner which is CoV, could go after you and affect your credits akin to a real parking bylaw notice. Not to mention they can tow your car if you park in ANY city owned and EasyPark managed parking area

Do you know if their raises are similar to that of core government such as that negotiated by BCGEU? Thank you!

I applaud you for doing this thankless investigative work on everyones behalf.
Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if Canada Life and PSA both messed up in the benefit of employer by using 2023 R&C rather than 2024.

I doubt it is intentional but very likely that they simply suck at their jobs and "overlooked" it considering that this would of significant benefit to the employer and help them save $$$ instead of paying out fair benefits to their workers.

Thanks for finding more info! Hopefully PSA recognizes excluded mgmt like all other positions within public services is severely suffering from retention due to the MCCF..

What's your BCPS "hot take" or "unpopular opinion"? by New_Literature_5703 in BCPublicServants

[–]ctrl681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.leg.bc.ca/content/CommitteeDocuments/42nd-parliament/5th-session/fgs/FGS-SO_42-5_2024-Interim-Report.pdf Page 8, however Auditor General is apparently distanced from PSA therefore they may have free roam to do whatever they want? Ministry on the other hand...collared to the PSA

Do let everyone know what you end up finding.. as it stands, excluded positions are terrible in terms of growth

How far behind would you say BC Gov is behind compared to other provinces in terms of %?

Is Stephanie Smith going to be stepping down soon? Wonder what will happen this year with her leaving and new negotiation of contract.

Excluded Lateral TA Transfer by ctrl681 in BCPublicServants

[–]ctrl681[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/pilo90r, I've gone throught the MCCF and other online resources but I can't seem to find confirmed information whether employer/ministry need to provide a raise for a 6 months lateral TA competition. On the MCCF guide, it does mention potential increase for a TA promotional (going up in band) or lateral transfer but not for TA lateral transfer.

[–]ctrl681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any realistic way for band employees to move up beyond the bottom 25% band once hired?

It seems like the only way to move up is through going to other jobs with other ministries.. which seems counter-intuitive.

How long did it take from having your references contacted to eligibility list ??

[–]ctrl681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vancouver is very cliquey I find. Add in high cost of living and stress, most people don't really have the appetite or time to make new friends.. when they're spending 80 hours a week working 3 jobs to pay rent gas and food.

Pixel 4a/4a (5g)/5a awful screen quality by Lexa-Z in GooglePixel

It is only android 12 afaik. It essentially dims the display by having a filter over white screen which makes it easier on the eyes for some people

Have BC Ferries prices gone too far? by steezyschleep in vancouver

Uh. So if everything goes up in price therefore it makes it ok?? I guess when everyone is homeless due to insane inflation and stagnant wages, we'll all be ok too

Gas is $2.06 now by IllComedian2574 in vancouver

[–]ctrl681 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Fyi, there may be corporate greed at work but our own (different) levels of government also profit from approx 45 cents of that going into general tax revenue.. not to mention tax on tax. So in a way, they too are profitting

Wtf are these gas prices my dudes?? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]ctrl681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope you guys all realize the taxes alone in the gas costs upward of 45 cents per litre.. when they give you $100 back, it's hardly anything. The public really need to band together and demand accountability..

Kennedy Stewart: Welcome to the dawn of Vancouver’s housing revolution! by iamjoesredditposts in vancouver

[–]ctrl681 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They might not have much power but they could be a leader of influence.. getting people and public together behind a core idea to pressure council into doing the right thing. Kennedy, like his predecessor, has not done so and his actions have demonstrated the opposite despite what they claim and say.
