Talks began with bad-faith bargaining complaint from Unifor
Unifor 10-B members working at Dearborn Ford in Kamloops, B.C. voted to ratify a new three-year collective agreement on Oct. 7 that includes wage increases and a pension enhancement.
After a turbulent start to bargaining that included a bad-faith bargaining complaint from Unifor, the 43 members of 10-B ratified a new collective agreement with 2.5 per cent wage increase per year, improved overtime provisions, stronger sick leave languages, work retention gains and a 0.25 per cent pension increase, says the union.
Unifor is Canada's largest union in the private sector, representing 315,000 workers in every major area of the economy.
