Progress at the table
Your bargaining team met with the employer over the last two days. Back in December we tabled a comprehensive proposal package to the employer including non-monetary and monetary items.
Over the last two days the parties focused on the non-monetary issues and were able to sign off on a few items at the conclusion of the day. Both parties left the day with a better understanding of each other’s priorities. We have tentative dates booked to continue discussions February 11-13, 2025.
Solidarity on the ground
On January 15, your mobilizers worked with the Local 369 Executive at Central North Correctional Centre and held an information picket. Thanks to everyone that stopped by, connected with the mobilizers and signed the mental health petition.
Stay tuned for further solidarity events that will be held across the province. A strong presence is needed at these events. Your attendance and support is how you show the employer that we are united in our efforts for your bargaining team to achieve the best possible contract.
In solidarity,
Janet Laverty, Chair, Correctional Bargaining Team
Adam Cygler, Vice-Chair, Correctional Bargaining Team
