After a long final day of negotiation, OPSEU/SEFPO Local 214’s bargaining team for children’s mental health workers at Pathstone Mental Health has reached a tentative agreement with the employer, just before the lockout deadline that was set for 12:01 am, February 22.
Details about the tentative agreement will be shared first with Local 214 members at Pathstone, who will have an opportunity to vote on whether to accept the tentative agreement next week in a ratification vote.
On behalf of Local 214 members, the bargaining team would like to thank our communities in Niagara Region for your support leading up to today’s negotiations. It means so much to us to have the support of the families and neighbours that we support every day.
We will provide an update after the ratification vote takes place.
