Postal employees head back to work as union challenges intervention in strike
- Canada Post is resuming operations after a month-long strike by more than 55,000 postal workers left letters and parcels in limbo.
Canada Post employees have returned to work following a brief strike, as the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) challenges the federal government's intervention. The strike, which began over issues related to wages, working conditions, and job security, was halted when the government invoked back-to-work legislation. CUPW argues that this move infringes on workers' rights to collective bargaining and strike action. The union is now seeking legal recourse to contest the legislation, claiming it undermines the democratic process of negotiation. Meanwhile, postal services have resumed, but the underlying tensions between the workers, their union, and the government remain unresolved, with potential for further labor disputes.
