The Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) and CUPE Local 2262 have agreed to put any potential job action on hold until 4 p.m. on Sept. 21, the regional district announced today.
“We will continue to meet with union representatives over the next nine days to discuss safety and operational protocols for the Nelson and District Community Complex should job action or a strike go ahead,” said CAO Jim Gustafson.
The regional district negotiates three collective agreements with CUPE that cover employees in all regional waste facilities and many employees at recreation complexes in Creston, Castlegar and Nelson.
The RDCK will provide public updates about labour negotiations over the coming days. It is business as usual at the Nelson and District Community Complex along with all other waste and recreation facilities in the regional district.
