Local 81 – Mount Saint Vincent University Bargaining Update: Information Session & Ratification Vote

Your Bargaining Committee has reached a tentative agreement with the Employer and is recommending acceptance.

We have scheduled an information session and ratification vote as follows:

Information Session: Friday, December 10, 2021, 12:00pm – 1:00pm

Ratification Vote: Friday, December 10, 2021, 1:00pm – 5:00pm

Location: Rosaria 401

Members of the Bargaining Committee including Chief Negotiator, Rick Wiseman, will be at both the information and ratification vote sessions. They are looking forward to discussing this round of bargaining, what has been achieved and answering any questions you may have. The information session is where we will meet as a group to discuss the tentative agreement. However, if you cannot attend this session, you will still be able to ask questions any time during the ratification vote session which follows.

A copy of the tentative agreement will be provided to the membership as soon as possible. We commit to an electronic copy being emailed to you no later than Thursday morning and printed copies will be made available at the information session and ratification vote.

PLEASE NOTE: At the end of the ratification vote session at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, December 9 the Bargaining Committee will close the vote and count the ballots. Any member wishing to know the results that evening is welcome to stay. Once the ballots are counted, we will share the results with those in attendance and an email will be delivered to the membership Friday morning.

We hope to see you there.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact a member of your Bargaining Committee.
