Town of Tisdale, unionized employees remain without deal
A local town and its unionized workers with the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) have failed to come together on a new collective agreement.
Committees from CUPE Local 777-02 and the Town of Tisdale met Oct. 30 to try to come to an agreement through voluntary mediation, but those efforts were unsuccessful.
The membership had rejected a tentative agreement.
On Nov. 6, CUPE sent a request to the office of Don Morgan, the Minister of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety that the union would like to apply for mediation under Section 6-33 of The Saskatchewan Employment Act in an effort to come to an agreement on a new contract.
