When it comes to collective bargaining, we often receive questions from members asking what is Central Table?

Central Table is defined as the group of Employers represented by the Provincial Health Labour Relations Services (also known as PHLRS) during bargaining with the Manitoba Nurses Union.

This group of Employers includes the following regions: Interlake-Eastern Health Region, Southern Health Region, Winnipeg-Churchill Health Region, Shared Health Region, Prairie Mountain Health Region and Northern Health Region.

MNU members who work at Hospitals, Personal Care Homes, and other health facilities/programs under these Employers are included in Central Table bargaining.

Here is a PDF with the list of the Hospitals, Personal Care Homes, and other health facilities/programs under that are represented at the Central Table.

Workplaces that are not part of Central Table are facilities that have separate collective agreements, and the Labour Relations Officer assigned to these Locals will be in contact when site heads to the bargaining table.
