Joint Benefits Trusts
Effective ongoing from April 1, 2017, benefits pursuant to the Health Science Professionals, Community and Facilities subsector collective agreements are provided by Joint Benefits Trusts (JBTs). The JBT model is an innovative approach to the design and management of employee benefits programs.
In the JBTs, union appointed trustees and employer appointed trustees are equal partners in delivering health and welfare benefits. Working together, the trustees are motivated to operate efficient and sustainable benefits plans that provide the best possible benefits for employees.
