TForce Final Mile Bargaining – Ottawa Unit

We’ve been in bargaining for TForce Final Mile bargaining units since December 2017. The Ottawa unit is the last one yet to get a new collective agreement.

The negotiating committee has had two sessions of talks with TForce, most recently February 26th to 28th.  We have not, however, been able to reach an agreement. Our next step will be mediation.

During this process, exerting pressure on the employer by showing solidarity and support for the negotiating committee can make a big difference. We need TForce to see and feel how much the bargaining unit members — and all postal workers — believe in our demands and stand united.

 

Solidarity Makes the Difference

The other TForce bargaining units in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba made real gains in their new collective agreements because they stayed informed and unified.

TForce members, please come out to our information meeting on March 16th – please get in touch if you didn’t get the invitation with details.

Members of other bargaining units, please stay informed and show solidarity with TForce members wherever you can. We’ll reach out to your local with ideas for a solidarity action. What’s good for our PSU members is good for us all!

Your collective power makes a real difference. Let TForce know you and your co-workers are united behind our demands. It works!

 

In Solidarity,

Jan Simpson
Lead negotiator (TForce Final Mile) and National President
