Have you heard something else from your manager you think we need to correct? Send an email to us at: [email protected] and we’ll put it in our next set of fact sheets.
As we get into bargaining, you can expect to receive more communications from the employer that try to bend the facts to fit the story they want to tell. As we’ve said in previous rounds of bargaining, don’t believe everything you hear from the employer.
We’ve told the employer about our concerns with what they’re saying. If they continue to claim that the ruling gives them new authority that the arbitrator didn’t specifically state, we’ll go back to the arbitrator to have him clear things up for them.
Remember, it’s in the employer’s interest to stir up confusion and to try to divide members against each other. They know, as we know, that we’re strongest when we’re united. So don’t let them divide us.
In solidarity,
Denise Davis
Chair, Liquor Board Employees Division
