EVRAZ North America, Union Reach Labor Agreement

According to the Regina Leader-Post, the three-year agreement between the company and the United Steelworkers was reached on Thursday. A strike had been set to begin at 6 a.m. today. 

The union’s bargaining committee is endorsing the deal. USW Western Canada director Steve Hunt told the Leader-Post  that he believes union members will agree to accept the deal. 

"We achieved a collective agreement for both Calgary and Regina that will hopefully serve our members well," he said. "… There are increases in all the areas we sought increases in. So all-in-all, a good deal for everybody I think."
