Negotiations between the Public Service Alliance of Canada and the British Columbia Corps of Commissionaires will resume on September 12, 2008, with the assistance of a Conciliation Officer. The Union had filed a notice of dispute on August 21, 2008, following the cancellation of bargaining dates by the employer. The employer had also previously imposed an arbitrary deadline of September 30th to reach an agreement with the Union.
Members of this bargaining unit perform work on behalf of the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) at Library Square and the Vancouver International Airport. These negotiations are for a first collective agreement for this unit.
