White-collar collective agreement: agreement in principle accepted

In a vote held on Tuesday, August 22, the City of Westmount’s white-collar workers overwhelmingly accepted the agreement in principle reached between the City and the Syndicat des fonctionnaires municipaux de Montréal (SCFP). 

Over the next few weeks, the union and the City will finalize the texts of the collective agreement to ratify it. Once signed, the new collective agreement will run for five (5) years, retroactive to January 1, 2023. 

“We are very satisfied with the process that led to this agreement and even happier to learn that the overwhelming majority of our white-collar workers approved it. White-collar workers are an essential part of municipal administration. They are present in all the City’s departments to provide quality services to the public. I would also like to thank everyone involved in these negotiations for their professionalism and goodwill,” said Christina M. Smith, Mayor of Westmount.
