You have two options:

Option 1: Accept the settlement

• You will withdraw your individual grievance by May 31, 2026, by signing the consent and release form. The Employer will send the form on or shortly after April 16, 2026.
• You will receive compensation.

Option 2: Do not accept the settlement

• You may continue your grievance independently through the internal grievance process.
• You will not receive compensation.
• You will discuss with the Employer a timeline for removing your grievance from abeyance and advancing it through the internal grievance presentation levels as per Article 24 of your collective agreement.

If you select Option 2, note that your grievance is not referrable to the Federal Public Sector Labour Relations and Employment Board without your union’s approval (per subsections 209(1) and (2) of the Federal Public Sector Labour Relations Act).
