Collective Agreement Pay Implementation

The AJC has filed a policy grievance asserting that the employer violated the collective agreement by not implementing compensation increase and retroactive amounts that did not require manual intervention within 180 days.  Although we have asked for individual remedies for affected members, they may not be awarded as part of a policy grievance.

To ensure that affected members may be eligible for individual remedies, the AJC will also file a group grievance for any member who:

  1. Has had their salary adjusted, but not received retroactive pay;
  2. Has received their retroactive pay, but has not had their salary adjusted; or
  3. Has not had their salary adjusted nor received their retroactive pay.

Note: If you have received your retroactive pay and had your salary adjusted, you cannot be a member of the group grievance. If your retroactive payment or salary is incorrect, please follow the instructions in our previous communication linked here.

AJC Pay Implementation Calculator

Members,

We are pleased to introduce the official AJC Pay Implementation Calculator (linked below), an updated tool designed to help you estimate your salary and retroactive payment under the terms of our new Collective Agreement. A special thank you to those members, who, while this updated official calculator was being worked on, came forward to help each other with salary and retroactive calculations and calculators. Members helping members is what makes us strong.

The Calculator is a convenient reference tool to provide members with a better understanding of their expected payments, and to act as an estimator for reviewing payments already received. Please note, however, that it may not precisely reflect the amount calculated by the Pay Centre.

We encourage members to use the Calculator as a guide while keeping the below disclaimer in mind. Should you have questions or concerns about your pay implementation, please do not hesitate to reach out to contact us.

Disclaimer:

The Association of Justice Counsel Pay Implementation Calculator (“Calculator”) was designed as a reference tool to help us estimate the retroactive payments that we are entitled to under our new Collective Agreement. The Calculator was designed for convenience and information purposes only. Depending on your individual circumstances, the resulting calculation from your use of the Calculator may be different than the amount calculated by the Pay Centre, and may differ from a more detailed calculation that takes into account your particular circumstances.  This calculator is meant to provide an estimate only, and the AJC cannot guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of the Calculator, nor the results obtained from its use. The AJC disclaims any and all responsibility with respect to any particular results obtained by the use of the Calculator.
