Ainsworth Employees to vote on tentative contract
There's a tentative deal for unionized workers at the Ainsworth oriented strandboard mill in Barwick.
It was reached yesterday afternoon following 27-hours of non-stop bargaining between the company and the Communication, Energy and Paperworkers Union.
No details are being released pending the outcome of a ratification vote by workers scheduled for tonight in Emo.
But C-E-P rep Steven Boon says the deal does address key language and monetary improvements and there are no concessions.
