The July 2014 CPI release date from the federal government used to calculate the COLA will be on August 22nd. The accumulated COLA amount after the adjustment of July 2014 compared to April 2014 will then be rolled into the Standard Hourly Scale as part of the base rate for wages as per the Letter Of Understanding Section 3 in the current CBA. The new rate will be reflected on the Sept 12th pay day with retro pay for the adjustment to be paid on the Sept 26th pay.
