¹ While the raw data showed an overall response rate of 62.2%, when cases in which initial contact was not established (i.e., telephone contact number not in service, email delivery failure, contact unavailable during survey period, duplicate entries, etc.) are excluded, the independent survey company determined that the valid response rate is 82.9%, p.17.

²As a result of changes to the PSLRB Performance Measurement Framework, the wording for this performance indicator changed slightly from what appeared in the PSLRB 2008-2009 Estimates, Part III — Report on Plans and Priorities, to more accurately reflect what is being measured, pp. 18, 20.

³This performance indicator initially appeared in the RPP under “Outputs” (i.e., mediation in the negotiation and renewal of collective agreements, the management of relations resulting from the implementation of collective agreements, in relation to grievances, complaints and other proceedings), p.18.

⁴As a result of changes to the PSLRB Performance Measurement Framework, the metrics previously used to track this performance indicator are no longer relevant as they relate to the Public Service Labour Relations Act, p.19.
