Labour Alert May 2012 As you may already know, AMS Security Guards working in the Student Union Building (SUB) recently organized and joined other members in COPE local 378. Since the security guards have been unable to reach a negotiated first contract, and recent actions by the employer have led the COPE members to file unfair labour practices, CUPE local 2950 has written AMS expressing our concerns. As a direct result of the parties not being able to negotiate a fair and respectful contact we are asking that CUPE local 2950 members NOT patronize the AMS outlets in SUB.

Bargaining Session Cancelled
As many of you know, we had a bargaining session scheduled for Wed. May 3rd. The University was scheduled to table their money offer (under the new "co-operative gains" mandate). UBC has cancelled that session - noting that the BC Liberals have not yet approved their "savings plan". The original timeline saw new offers being tabled anywhere from very late March to mid-April. We have been given no official reason for the delay. We have calls into both the BC Liberals & the NDP critic and the opposition leader. Please stay tuned - we will update this site as soon as we know more.
