It’s been a long road to getting BTS Associates certified as a bargaining unit within Unifor.
There were attempts made to hinder our campaign, security guards were installed to restrict our access and associates were suddenly tempted with unheard of raises, all in an effort to dissuade the the them from joining.
We’re happy to say the Associates staid the course and persisted in their goal of having a voice with this employer.
We’re looking forward to negotiating their first ever collective agreement in the coming months.
In the meantime, these flyers from our campaign highlight some of the key reasons this is a positive direction for these workers.
