PSAC 15-Year Service Pin

The Board of Directors of the PSAC has established criteria to govern the granting of 15-year service pins in the Public Service Alliance of Canada. The criteria established are as follows:

The pin will only be awarded to a person who was an active union official in the 18-month period immediately preceding the June 30th deadline.

A union officer, for the purpose of award determination, will include stewards within the Public Service Alliance of Canada.

Continuous service may include varying official positions generally without breaks in service of more than three months. However, the three months may be extended for just cause in circumstances where it was unrealistic to expect a nominee to hold a union position.

Nominations should be submitted on an approved application form.

Applications for the 15-year service pin may be sponsored by any segment of the Alliance but must be submitted through their respective component. The component will ensure enclosure of a complete service history.

The Honours and Awards Committee of the PSAC will review all applications, advise the PSAC National Board of Directors each September of recipients, and forward to component national presidents names of recipients within their component and pins for presentation or distribution.

Applications are available by contacting the UNDE National Office.
