The use of independent labor, according to APTS, “a vicious circle”.

The union fears that the large deficit is expected from the ZISS de la Gaspésie does not force the organization to cut budgets if Quebec does not support them financially.

Such a deficit was caused by independent work, according to the CEO of ZISSMartin Pelletier.

The state representation for theAPTs in Gaspésie, Jenny Tardif, fears that the ZISS Services to the population are not reduced because of financial difficulties.

The use of free labor is a kind of vicious circle that can only be broken through improved working conditions in the public sector.

Why are people leaving the public grid and turning to private workers? Why are there no recruitment and retention policies in the public sector? Why aren’t attractive measures in the private sector more advantageous than in the public sector?asks Jenny Tardif.

People who leave public service for the private sector do so for reasons. »

A quote from Jenny Tardif, National Representative of APTS in Gaspésie

L’APTs calls for an increase in funding for ZISS located in remote areas to improve workforce attraction and retention.

The union organization is also calling for the bonuses given to nurses in remote regions to be extended to other employment categories.

Use of private agencies has exploded in recent years, according to CISSS data.

New data also shows that it is the local health networks of Haute-Gaspésie and Baie-des-Chaleurs that make the most use of independent workers.

At the time of publication, the ZISS de la Gaspésie had not answered our questions on the subject.
