Labour Day is a chance to recognize the people who keep New Brunswick running. Since late 2024, we've reached 18 collective agreements covering more than 55,000 professionals across the province, including:
➡️ 9,300+ nurses
➡️ 7,800+ teachers, under a new five-year deal
➡️ 3,000+ allied health professionals, including paramedics, medical laboratory technologists, diagnostic imaging technologists and respiratory therapists
➡️ About 6,400 education assistants and school support staff
➡️ 10,000+ hospital support workers
➡️ We've also signed a new four-year agreement with the New Brunswick Medical Society to help attract and retain physicians and strengthen access to primary care.
These agreements reflect the hard work of the people who deliver services to New Brunswickers every day, in classrooms, hospitals, and communities across the province.
