Welcome to the AAHP Website. This site has been developed for the primary use of our members to keep them updated on happenings and events within their union. We do invite others to explore the many services and linkages we provide to our members.

AAHP is a union in Newfoundland and Labrador that represents allied health professionals in a variety of disciplines employed in the health science fields. AAHP is dedicated to improving the quality of life for its members and our members are dedicated to improving the life of the clients and patients they serve. Together we are Making Life Better.


 




Happy New Year to All our Members.  As we look ahead to 2010, we are confident that AAHP will continue to be a strong a vibrant union representing allied health professionals in Eastern Health of Newfoundland and Labrador.  In a meeting just prior to Christmas with Steve Dodge of Eastern Health, we discussed the probablility of entering into a Memorandum of Agreement, that would allow employees to move within the legacy boards of Eastern Health without loss of seniority.  We have requested in writing to Mr. Dodge that we begin that process, we will inform members as soon as we have negotiated a Memorandum of Agreement on this matter.  At this point, due to ongoing issues relating to the faith based nursing homes, Eastern Health has not proceeded with an application (to the Labour Relations Board) to seek one bargaining unit for all allied health professionals.  We want to assure our members that we will keep you abreast of any developments in this area as soon as they occur.

We will like to remind all members that AAHP is participating in the process with government to bring in a new job evaluation system.  Edgar Gaulton, (psychologist) a long term member of AAHP is our representative on the Steering Committee.  We encourage all members to pay attention to any communication coming out on the Job Evaluation Committee over the next few months.  Some members will be asked to complete a job questionnaire and it is this part of the process that is most critical.  There will be training workshops for those who will be required to complete the job questionnaire.  We will be keeping members up to date as this process proceeds. In the meantime, members should read the update on the Job Evaluation system found in our "What's New Section".
