Workers walk out at B.C. lumber mills cnews.canoe.ca
VANCOUVER (CP) Walkouts hit two B.C. coastal lumber mills Tuesday, less than a day after the industry decided to impose new cost-cutting employment terms and conditions on workers.
B.C. forest companies impose contract on workers CBC News
Forest Industrial Relations (FIR), which bargains for 45 companies, said Monday that it will put in place its last offer to the Industrial Wood and Allied Workers of Canada (IWA) on Tuesday.
That contract includes some increases for workers, but also cuts shift premiums for weekends and pay for time spent travelling to logging sites.
The IWA said it will seek a cease-and-desist order from the Labour Relations Board.------------------------------------------- posted 11:39 AM :: reference link ::
