Quebec nurses union says job postings requiring bilingualism are discriminatory
- A nurses union in Quebec's Gaspe Peninsula is accusing the local health-care network of discrimination against francophone job applicants, as their job postings require English proficiency. The union argues that the bilingual requirement is inappropriate given the existing staff shortages and recruitment challenges in the health network.
- Union president Pier-Luc Bujold criticizes the job postings, stating that they are out of touch with reality and represent a form of discrimination from a bygone era.
- The union is urging the Quebec Health Department to step in and address the issue of bilingualism requirements in job postings, which they believe hinder the fair employment of francophone personnel.
