B.C. gov’t, public sector union to return to bargaining table

The BC General Employees’ Union says negotiations with the provincial government will resume as soon as possible.

The union announced Friday that its bargaining committee has agreed to non-binding talks with the province, mediated by Vince Ready and Amanda Rogers.

“The decision follows a request from government late Thursday afternoon and comes after seven weeks of province-wide strike action by more than 25,000 public service workers,” the BCGEU stated.

Picketing will continue while mediation proceeds.
