Unionized Canada Post workers to vote on deal starting July 21
CANADA, JUL 16 – Unionized Canada Post workers will vote on a deal offering a 13.59% wage increase and $1,000 signing bonus amid a 19-month labor dispute and daily losses of $10 million, officials said.
- On Monday, July 21, members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers will vote by phone or online on the employer's latest collective agreement offers through August 1.
- Following a ministerial request, Canada Post dismissed arbitration as a `long` process.
- In the proposal, Canada Post, Crown corporation, includes 13.59% wage increases and a $1,000 signing bonus, and it introduces part-time roles for seven-day delivery.
- Upon a no decision, the union warns it will maintain its overtime ban and return to bargaining, emphasizing opposition to the employer’s offer.
- Facing deep deficits, Canada Post has accumulated $3.8 billion since 2018, putting financial strain on the Crown corporation.
