Kamloops postal workers hopeful as negotiations continue
KAMLOOPS — Workers are busy and hopeful today as negotiations continue between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.
Canada Post decided to withdraw its lock out threat yesterday, July 10, after both sides returned to the bargaining table.
President of CUPW Local 758, Patricia Nauss said it was not clear how much closer the union and Crown corporation were to reaching an agreement.
“All we do know is that they’re back at the table,” Nauss said. “The mail volumes are doing well. For today we have a lot of mail in Kamloops, well, not tons, but we’re doing really well. We don’t want to be locked out, we want to keep working.”
