We’ll be back at the table with Shaw management and the federal conciliator on Monday. The two remaining issues on the table are salaries and pension and management is expected to deliver a new proposal on salaries.
Our overall position remains the same. We’re looking for:
– A fair and logical salary structure that provides rates in line with the industry.
– Mandatory management contributions of 5% to our pension savings, in line with what the company contributes for virtually every other employee.
We have scheduled membership meetings for Thursday July 21 (at noon and 5 pm) at St. Andrew’s church to follow up with all of you after next week’s crucial meetings. We hope we’ll have good news to report.
In the meantime, watch your email and/or the CMG website for updates. And if you have any questions or thoughts, don’t hesitate to get in touch with any one of us. Thanks for your ongoing support!
Your bargaining committee:
Mike Duong, Shaw branch president
Katy Boudreau

Karen Wirsig, CMG staff
