Negotiations continue this week at the Corrections table. The
Bargaining Team is meeting with the employer, and will report
back as events warrant. Stay tuned.
In the meantime, members
of the Corrections Division continue to keep the pressure on the
employer in order to get a fair and reasonable contract.
In the days ahead, members will set up information pickets at
various Corrections sites and will focus on other OPS sites as
well. This should send a message to the government that this
fight is for all of the OPS, not just the Corrections Bargaining
Unit. Demonstrations at MPPs’ offices are also planned to add
pressure on the government.
Dates and locations of these events are NOT being posted for
strategic reasons. Members are asked to stay in contact with
their local presidents for information. Non-Corrections unit
members are also reminded that all actions are directed towards
the employer, and they should not be alarmed if an event happens
unexpectedly at their worksite.
Remember: Action in the workplace equals action at the
bargaining table. Ignore the rumours, and keep up the good work.
