Wal-Mart workers at store in Saguenay, Que., win union accreditation CBC News
SAGUENAY, Que. (CP) - A Wal-Mart store in this city may become the first such outlet to be unionized after the Quebec Labour Relations Board accredited a union there to represent workers at the retail giant.
The Quebec Federation of Labour announced the accreditation on Monday. The store has about 180 employees in this city 200 kilometres north of Quebec City.
'The union represents the large majority of the store's employees,' said Marie-Josee Lemieux, president of the union local with the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW).
'We hope that Wal-Mart will accept this decision and negotiate a labour contract with the union.'------------------------------------------- posted 6:15 AM :: reference link ::
