Contents Salary is often taken as the sole measure of the worth of an agreement. However, this can be greatly misleading, as many other elements in a collective agreement can dramatically impact the quality of nursing work. Typically, nursing unions in Canada have one agreement that represents the majority of nurses in the province (the provincial standard for the membership). The values for the comparisons come from these agreements. Efforts have been made to ensure that similar provisions are compared. However, some items do not have comparable provisions. Unless otherwise noted, all information is based on a seven and threequarter-hour shift (shift lengths vary across the country), i.e. not a twelvehour shift. It is understood that nurses across the country work shifts of varying length. For the purpose of this document, to give a relative overview of contract clauses and salaries amongst the affiliates, it is easiest to limit information to the one shift. Also, information has been gathered from collective agreements that the respective affiliates believe best represents their agreements. Please be advised that this document is only intended as a guide. Copies of collective agreements are available from the website of most unions.
