New Boot Increase Allowance
During the 2024 negotiations the Union negotiated a boot allowance increase. Here is a summary of the new selection criteria. The Store has now been updated to reflect the new selection on the wall.
- New boot/insole subsidy is $200 (including tax) at Mr. Safety Shoes in Ingersoll. This opens up around 15 new pairs of boots to the current selection.
- Most approved boots at regular price of $210 and under will fall into this criteria with our pricing rollback and will be identified on the wall as per usual.
- Regular priced boots above $210 are eligible for 10% discount. (eg. $250 – %10 = $225 + HST, company would cover up to $200 and employee pays the difference).
- Insoles may also be included up to the $200 limit with the employee paying any difference. (I.e – lower price boot selection could include insole addition fully covered, but a $210+ price boot may not)
