All Facilities Bargaining Association (FBA) members will receive a three per cent general wage increase as of April 1, 2024.
Since the expiry of the previous collective agreement, FBA members’ wages over the three years of the renewed agreement have risen by between 13.57 and 14.22 per cent, depending on your job classification.
Your FBA bargaining committee secured protections for member pay cheques against inflation in the second and third years of the contract, by linking the general wage increase to the annualized average inflation rate. Based on B.C.’s cost-of-living calculations between March 2023 and February 2024, the full inflationary adjustment was triggered, leading to the maximum three per cent pay boost.
