Project Employees
A pilot project has been established to provide an alternate means of undertaking "time limited" project work. Given the nature of the provisions, it is very unlikely that project employee status, as per BCGEU Collective Agreement, Memorandum of Understanding #20, will be of interest to current, regular BC Government GEU, PEA or excluded employees.
This provision was negotiated in order to provide management with additional flexibilities in completing certain kinds of work. It also anticipated that the pilot would facilitate a reduction in the number of contractors engaged to do work which could be performed by employees.
