Bargaining

ST. JOHN’S – The Public Service Alliance of Canada welcomes federal Minister of Labour Lisa Raitt’s initiative for proposing non-binding recommendations.

When the TC bargaining team called for action on May 22nd, members of local UEW 60067 at the St Andrews Biological Centre were our there!

The Teaching Assistants Union of Memorial University of Newfoundland elected its negotiating committee at a membership meeting on May 30, 2013. 

As we mark the six-month anniversary of the St. John's airport strike, growing concerns about the impact of this strike on the pending tourism season are not misplaced.

ST. JOHN’S, NL – 85 striking workers will solemnly acknowledge the six-month-mark of their strike at St. John’s Airport Monday.  Striking workers and supporters will gather at the terminal for a silent vigil and appeal to the Airport CEO and his Board of Directors to end to the prolonged strike. 

ST. JOHN’S, NL - After 5 days of negotiations and a 5-day recess, the St. John’s Airport Authority is refusing to negotiate with striking workers to end a six-month strike. Unfortunately, early on Friday, March 1, 2013, the federal mediator advised that he would not bring the parties back to the table and is standing down the process. It is now obvious to the PSAC that this employer is not prepared to negotiate an end to this labour dispute, but wants to continue trying to impose its demands on workers.
