Your S&A Bargaining team worked hard for two days (November 30 and December 1) with the Employer to narrow issues in bargaining and move towards a tentative agreement. We made a great deal of progress but one outstanding issue remains – rates of pay! Even on this issue progress was made but not enough for your bargaining team to be confident in recommending you vote for the deal.
We will be returning to the bargaining table January 9-10, 2018.
