Over the last few months, HEU’s facilities bargaining committee has reached significant agreements with health employers on a range of issues that will help us address the staffing crisis causing huge stress and burnout in our hospitals and care homes.
 
However, the facilities bargaining committee decided on Friday to pause negotiations to show their support to BCGEU members who will be engaged in job action starting today.
 
BCGEU members will set up picket lines at 3:30 Monday at four BC Liquor Distribution Branch wholesale and distribution centres.
 
No HEU members or HEU work sites will be currently impacted by this strike.
