New agreement ratified for Nisichawayasihk nurses

The 5 Nelson House nurses who went on strike back in May, now have an agreement.

 

The Nisichawayasihk Personal Care Home Nurses went on strike after negotiations broke down as a result of the Federal government not committing their share of funding for the nurses.

 

On July 24th they went back to work after applying for an imposition of a contract to the Labour Board.

 

Last week an agreement was ratified, and includes a 6% pay increase from August 1, 2013 to March 21, 2018.
