MONTREAL, May 12, 2021 /CNW Telbec/ - Meeting virtually in a special assembly last night, the forty or so employees of the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) in Quebec voted massively in favour of a mandate giving them the right to use pressure tactics that could go as far as a strike.
These union members have been without a contract since May 2019.
Negotiations are respectful, but they are dragging on. The main unresolved issues are pay equity between employees in Quebec and those elsewhere in Canada, as well as internal equity among recruiters who have less favourable working conditions.
