CUPE Reaches Deal with Public School Board
In spite of recent labor unrest with the Keewatin-Patricia District School Board, at least one union has settled on a new two year contract.
Educational Support staff with the public school board has ratified a new agreement.
CUPE local 1939 says the deal addresses a number of issues important to them including protecting services through better job security, better sick leave support, and protection of pension contributions.
Union president Jim Favreau says despite the agreement, the union still has a number of concerns
with the provincial government's Bill 115.
