Local 70 – South Shore Regional Centre for Education Bargaining Update: Ratification Vote Results
The ratification vote for members of Local 70 (South Shore Regional Centre for Education) concluded today at 5 pm, with 94% of members voting to reject the employer’s offer, as the bargaining committee had recommended.
Throughout the day today, Tuesday, October 11, Local 73 was able to negotiate a tentative agreement with AVRCE. As a result, it is expected that the SSRCE will call your local 70 bargaining committee back to the table in an effort to also conclude a collective agreement.
Any strike action at SSRCE will be put on hold as a result of these upcoming negotiations.
Watch your email for more details coming soon.
Your bargaining committee members appreciate the ongoing support and solidarity of the membership throughout this difficult round of bargaining.
