NSGEU Voting on Contract Offer, Starting Today

by Bobby NockDecember 12, 2016

About 76-hundred provincial civil servants begin voting on a final contract offer, today.

The Nova Scotia Government and General Employees Union is recommending its members reject the province’s offer.

NSGEU President Jason MacLean said in October the union asked to return to the bargaining table but adds the province has refused.

Today’s voting comes as teachers begin a second week of work-to-rule job action after contract talks with their union broke down.

The NSGEU vote is taking place electronically through to Wednesday.
