Canadian Press, June 23, 2008 Regina - More than 7,200 Saskatchewan nurses are voting Monday on whether to accept a contract offer. The proposed deal would give nurses a five per cent wage increase in each year of a four-year contract, as well as a five per cent bump to bring them in line with what Alberta nurses make. There would also be extra money for nurses with 20 years of experience and for working weekends and certain shifts. The Saskatchewan Union of Nurses - which has made not make a recommendation on the contract - has said the deal doesn't address its concerns about recruitment and retention. Polling stations are expected to report by 10:30 PM, although the results of the vote may not be known until Tuesday morning. The nurses have been without a contract since the end of March.
