Kootenay Savings workers reject latest offer
By Nelson Daily Staff
One hundred and fifty unionized employees at Kootenay Savings Credit Union have rejected the company’s latest offer by 81 per cent.
As a result, the union (Local 9705) and the company have said they are trying to set a date to sit down and begin bargaining process all over again.
Over 90 per cent of the union voted for a strike in January. Pension was the issue, but it was removed from the bargaining process when it went to arbitration.
