. VANCOUVER—.An arbitrator has |
_ awarded the province's 24,000 hospital |

* workers an interim eight per cent wage
. increase,
- The increase, at the lowest end of the

- provinces 8-12 per cent wage restraint |

program, will be effective Aug, 1.
Along with the increase in pay, ar-

bitrator Don Munroe also cut the work’

week for members of the Hospital Em-

—ployees Union (HEU) to 35 hours from 374%

beginning in 1984, - a
The HEU and the Hospital Labor
Relations: Association

largely ‘redundant, ~.
The interim agreement was made to
provide some settlement for, hospital

workers until their contract is finally _
- settled, probably sometime this fall:

. Munroe stressed the interim nature of

_ ‘the increase saying that the final award .
does not rely upon-it and will be. ‘‘un-
dertaken.as though this interim wage:

~ award has not been made,”

(HLRA), which -

__ had gone to arbitration when the wage
restraint program made strike action '-

HEU officials are upset the increase was

expired at the end of 1981.
’ HEU secretary manager Jack Gerow
said the union welcomed the increase since

. it was the first one for its members in a.
year, but. said it should have deen
retroactive,

* As far as:the work week decrease is
concerned, Gerow said the reduction was
“a significant step farward for.the union",
Gerow said the union had-been demanding
a shorter work week for at least 15 years.

HLRA president Peter McAllister said
the wage increase was acceptable but said
the. work week decrease will cause coat:

_ problems when It'is implemented if the
economy remains depréssed,

The cost impact’ of the award on
restrained hospital boards has been:
greatly reduced by. the‘delay in im-
plementing the shortened work week and

However McAllister said - the increase.
will still result in increased costa.and will

not prevent lay-offs from. occurring at
