Local 70 – South Shore Regional Centre for Education RATIFICATION RESULTS

The ratification vote for members of Local 70 South Shore Regional Centre of Education concluded today at 4 p.m. 92% of members voted to reject the employer’s offer, as the bargaining committee had recommended.

Members working on the South Shore deserve to be paid the same as others doing the same job throughout Nova Scotia.

The NSGEU is now filing the 48 hour strike notice with Government and will announce strike details shortly.

Your strong support and solidarity were greatly appreciated throughout the bargaining process. We thank you for your support and patience during these negotiations. The NSGEU would like to thank the members of your bargaining committee for their hard work and dedication, as well.
