Crown Investments Corporation is pleased to announce that its six Crown corporations have reached tentative agreements with their respective Unifor locals. SaskEnergy, SaskPower, SaskTel, Directwest, SecurTek and SaskWater signed memoranda of agreement today. Details of the agreements will not be available until ratification has been completed by unionized employees at all Crown corporations.
“These agreements were reached because dedicated teams were determined to achieve agreements that are fair and beneficial to both the employees and the corporations,” said Blair Swystun, President and CEO of Crown Investments Corporation. “On behalf of the leadership at each of the Crowns and CIC, thank you to the Crown bargaining teams and Unifor’s negotiators who have worked tirelessly to reach settlements.”
Employees from all seven Crowns will begin voting on the tentative deals over the next few weeks. Return to work schedules will begin Monday, October 21 at all Crowns. However, operations will take a few days to return to normal. Employees can expect to receive more information later today regarding their schedules from management.
