We are pleased to report that our members employed at the Rural Municipality of Garry No. 245 in the Yorkton area voted 100% in favour of a First three-year Agreement!
Highlights of the first Teamster Agreement included a significant lump sum payment for 2025, 15% increases to wages over the term, a fifth week of vacation for 14 years of service and winter snow clearance work for laid off employees, including monetary compensation on top of any work performed!
Congratulations to Lead Negotiator & Business Agent Mike Hitchins, Business Agent Richard Rose and their bargaining committee!
“Brother Hitchins and Brother Rose did a great job securing a First Teamster Agreement for our members. Our phones continue to ring with non-Union municipal workers seeing the benefits of a Teamster Agreement.”- Joshua Cenaiko, Secretary-Treasurer
