Canada Post, union finalize outstanding contractual language in tentative deals
The five-year tentative agreements include wage increases, enhanced benefits, and weekend parcel delivery, with 55,000 union members set to vote on ratification.
- Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers finalized outstanding contractual language after tentative agreements last month, ending a two-year labour dispute, union says.
- Labour unrest, including rotating strikes, eroded talks over two years as Canada Post and CUPW sparred over wages and structural changes, prompting repeated picket lines and government intervention after a 2024 holiday strike.
- The new five-year deal runs until 2029 and includes higher wages, enhanced benefits, a weekend parcel delivery model, and clauses on short-term disability and personal days, Canada Post says.
- CUPW will manage the ratification vote, the CUPW national executive board is expected to soon set voting dates and recommends its 55,000 members approve the deal, and both sides agreed to no strikes or lockouts during voting.
- CUPW's leadership says the agreement provides stability to workers and includes weekend parcel delivery arrangements amid Canada Post's business model changes.
