Nurses in Alberta are set to vote later this month on a mediator’s recommended settlement with their employers.
The United Nurses of Alberta says an online ratification vote will take place on Oct. 30.
It says the mediator is recommending pay increases ranging from 12 to 22 per cent over four years, as well as significant hikes to some pay premiums.
The union had been seeking 30 per cent pay raises over two years while the Alberta government’s standing offer is 7.5 per cent over four years.
