At 8:00 AM PST November 13, 2018, the Pacific Processing Centre in Vancouver will go back to work.
A big thank you to all the members that walked the line. An even bigger thank you to our families, friends, other Unions and the public that came out to support us.
Just a reminder that there is still a National Overtime ban in effect. This is a legal strike action. National CUPW expects all members to follow this direction. Canada Post cannot discipline you for participating in a legal strike action. Canada Post cannot force you to do overtime.
This means,
Work to a maximum of eight hours in a day, forty hours in a week.
- Letter Carriers are to return to the depot and drop off their mail after eight hours’ work, regardless of whether they have completed their routes. –Please report to your supervisor any mail that you bring back.
- Part time and temporary workers are permitted to extend, to a maximum of 8 hours per day, 40 hours per week.
Please share this information with your co-workers. We need all members to be aware of this legal strike action.
If you are made aware of members performing overtime please inform one of the Local Officers right away, but do not engage the member(s) on your own.
This is a time to stand together in solidarity against the boss, not to fight amongst ourselves.
Please treat each other with respect during this difficult time. The Union stands against bullying and intimidation in any form. If you encounter bullying and/or intimidation on the work floor as a result of this ban, please report it to one of the Local Officers right away. We will be reporting to the National Executive Board.
Let’s work together towards a collective agreement that benefits all postal workers.
