Local 514 Bargaining Update

This week the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) concluded the hearing regarding the International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 514’s DP World (Canada) Inc. pay and manning proposal, which the BCMEA alleges to be illegal, constituting the union bargaining in bad faith. We are awaiting a decision from the Board and will communicate further when appropriate.

At time of writing, neither Party has issued 72-hour notice of strike or lockout, nor have there been any labour disruptions. Regular cargo and passenger operations at British Columbia’s ports continue uninterrupted.
