Although a formal conciliation period ended on June 10, 2016, labour negotiations between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) continue.
We are committed to reaching separate collective agreements with CUPW-Urban and CUPW-RSMC, which together represent our delivery agents and plant workers.
Talks have been ongoing since late 2015 and, following a 60-day conciliation period, the parties are now in a 21-day “cooling-off” period. Based on that timeline, there can be no legal work disruption until July 2, 2016.
While there is still time to reach new agreements, customers should take precautions as a labour disruption remains a possibility.
