Saskatoon Library Workers Strike for Safer Conditions and Fair Wages

Library workers in Saskatoon demand improved safety measures and wages, prompting a one-day strike after failed negotiations.

Dozens of Saskatoon Public Library workers, represented by CUPE 2669, initiated a one-day strike to push for better working conditions and wages.
Workers are advocating for increased safety measures, citing incidents of violence and being left alone during shifts as major concerns.
The union claims that the Saskatoon Public Library has not adequately addressed their demands despite ongoing negotiations.
SPL expressed disappointment over the strike, maintaining they have been committed to constructive bargaining processes.
Library services were disrupted on Tuesday, but are expected to resume normal operations on Wednesday.
