Librarians & Archivists: Bargaining Bulletin Vol. 6, No. 22 - UWOFA

As we reported last week, the Librarians and Archivists strike vote returned a 100% YES! Mandate.

Today in #uwo #uwofa #uwofala labour history: The UWO Faculty Association President kicking off a rally featuring guest Sid Ryan, then president of the Ontario Federation of Labour, during the previous librarians' and archivists' strike in 2011.

Negotiations at Western are not going well. The association has asked the conciliator to file a "no-board report". Seventeen days after this report is filed (and assuming that a strike vote has been held), the librarians at UWO will be in a legal strike position.

Librarians & Archivists: Bargaining Bulletin Vol. 6, No. 21 - UWOFA

Given the Employer’s apparently intractable position on our key remaining bargaining goals (commitment to complement and a fair monetary offer), we have decided to cancel the upcoming conciliation dates and move forward with the next steps required to be in a legal strike position.

Western, meet your Librarians and Archivists!

my employer continues to radicalize me. They won't pay us more, or hire to replace vacancies created by attrition, or to expand the number of librarians in keeping with the growth of the undergraduate enrolment, but they WILL increase our benefits for therapy!
