Childcare Option 1 BCTF will reimburse members for the following costs if members choose to bring a childcare provider to the FIT and/or Summer Conference: • $18 per hour for the hours of care that are required in order to attend the BCTF business sessions only, not to exceed $240 for any 24-hour period • accommodation for the caregiver at UBC, if separate accommodation is required • BCTF per diems (breakfast, lunch, and supper) for the caregiver for the days at UBC. If you are bringing a childcare provider with you and require separate accommodation for them, please contact Christine Choinski (cchoinski@bctf.ca) or Ashley Gurat (agurat@bctf.ca), and Karen Chung (kchung@bctf.ca) in order to arrange the booking. Option 2 Members arrange for care in their home community. BCTF Procedure 10.I.28, 4 provides: “A maximum claim of $240 per 24-hour day will be paid for outside daycare services. Where care is required for less than a full day, the amount paid will be based on the number of hours of daycare at $18 an hour. The BCTF will only reimburse members for dependant costs that would not otherwise be incurred by the member. Members must submit a receipt with the expense voucher showing the name and address of the caregiver and amount expended. Members must obtain the approval of the program coordinator before incurring daycare costs in excess of the maximum to be reimbursed by the BCTF.”
