AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE RATIFIED – COMPAGNIE NORMAND LTÉE

Striking for 5 weeks now, members of Compagnie Normand ltée voted, on June 26, 62%, in favor of the agreement-in-principle negotiated following a few conciliation meetings.

Several monetary gains were realized, including an increase in the amount of the premium, a holiday bonus as well as the insurance level (the employer will pay its portion of the insurance premium when the work stoppage). Moreover, the solidarity of the members throughout the 5 weeks of strike will bear fruit, an union demand for the work schedules was accepted by the employer and the wages will have increased by 14% at the end of the 5-year agreement.

Congratulations to the entire bargaining team and to all the members who have remained in solidarity!
