The Government of Canada has reached a tentative agreement with the Association of Justice Counsel (AJC) for the Law Practitioner (LP) group. Upon ratification, the agreement would apply to approximately 3,200 members located throughout the country. Members of the LP group support federal services through their application of a comprehensive knowledge of the law and its practice.
The 4-year tentative agreement, expiring on May 9, 2026, would provide general economic increases that follow the established pattern in the federal public service as well as other improvements for employees, including a wage harmonization across the group, a one-time allowance of $2,500, and new leave for traditional Indigenous practices.
To date, the Government of Canada has reached agreements with 17 bargaining units covering approximately 80% of the collective bargaining population in the core public administration.
