The Keewatin-Patricia District School Board and its Local Canadian Union of Public Employees, Local 1939 (representing Caretaking and Maintenance Staff), are pleased to advise that they have reached agreement on local terms and conditions for the 2019 to 2022 Collective Agreement.
Both parties will recommend the memorandum to their respective groups for ratification in the near future and look forward to implementation of both the Local and Central Terms and Conditions for staff. No details of the settlement will be released pending ratification.
Caryl Hron, Interim Director of Education, stated, "I am pleased that the parties were able to reach a settlement that will pave the way for continued successful working relationships between the Board and the Union. We greatly value our CUPE staff; the work they do each and every day keeps our schools operating safely and efficiently."
