Add Comment Question: Between a work contract setting out your position, date and time of work and a union collective agreement (came on 2 years after I was hired), which takes precedent? My company is trying to change my position title, days and time because of the union agreement. I wonder if my employment contract is still active. Answer: Typically the collective bargaining agreement will govern your rights. For more information please speak to your local union steward.
