TORONTO — Metro staff from 27 shops within the Greater Toronto Area are voting this afternoon on a second tentative deal, which if ratified will finish a greater than month-long strike.
The Montreal-based grocer and the Unifor bargaining committee reached a deal on Wednesday.
The deal got here sooner or later after Metro was granted a short lived injunction proscribing secondary picket traces that blocked recent product deliveries to its shops.
The greater than 3,700 staff have been on strike since July 29 after rejecting the primary tentative settlement, which was beneficial by the bargaining committee.
The staff have been calling for his or her pandemic “hero pay” to return, in addition to higher working situations and extra full-time jobs.
Unifor Local 414 president Gord Currie mentioned Wednesday that the brand new tentative deal acknowledges staff’ financial wrestle.
