After a seven-week strike, an agreement has been reached between OPSEU Local 334
members and management at the Kawartha-Haliburton Children's Aid Society (KHCAS).
Without a contract since March 2011, more than 130 workers at KHCAS walked
off the job on October 17th, when negotiations broke down on key issues related
to workload, job security, hours-of-work and layoff language.
Local 334 contended that management created oppressive and stressful working
conditions, with poor job security and extremely long hours, both during the
week and on weekends.
Today’s tentative agreement was reached by Local 334 and KHCAS management
after three days back at the bargaining table with a provincial mediator.
