Canada Post announced today (Thursday) an agreement was met with its second largest union, the Canadian Postmasters and Assistants Association.
This comes as the postal service and the Postal Workers Union continue to work out an agreeable contract.
Local CUPW 812 President Nicole Chouinard said the latest agreement isn’t a lead they will necessarily be following.
“It’s kind of like comparing apples and oranges. While it is a union with Canada Post, they represent kind of a different working structure than what we’re trying to negotiate through our talks, so it’s not a similar situation.”
The employees have been in a legal strike position since May 23rd, but have so far only placed a ban on overtime.
The union represents 55,000 workers across the country, as well as 200 in the Prince George area.
Something going on in the Prince George area you think people should know about?
