Overview

  • A bargaining session planned for Friday has been rescheduled to Monday, Aug. 25, according to CUPW.
  • CUPW says Canada Post requested more time to evaluate the union’s response to the corporation’s “latest and final” offers.
  • The parties returned to the table on Wednesday after CUPW submitted new comprehensive proposals on Aug. 20.
  • CUPW says Canada Post’s previous final offers did not meet its needs and it is continuing a national ban on overtime.
  • CUPW’s latest package seeks a 19% wage increase over four years with a cost-of-living trigger and full-time-only weekend parcel delivery, while Canada Post has proposed roughly 13% over four years and adding part-time roles.
