Strike At Jamesion
Employees at Jamesion walked off the job at 12:01 Thursday to back contract demands.
The employees, members of Unifor Local 195, had voted 99.4% in favour of strike action on January 17th.
The union says that their strike action stemmed primarily from disputes over wages, the duration of a proposed four-year agreement, benefits, and job security.
The 317 members work in manufacturing vitamins, as well as in packaging and warehouse.
