Unifor members who work at WM Hamilton – a commercial waste removal and recycling facility in Stoney Creek, Ont. – voted 93% in favour of a strike, as talks continue to a deadline of May 2 at midnight.
“We have a toxic work environment with poor moral and multitude of violations of the collective bargaining agreement with open grievances and arbitrations that we need to deal with before we can move forward with respect,” said Local 4268 President Debbie Montgomery.
The local held a strike vote on April 24.
Members are fighting against forced overtime, forced training and wages and pensions.
The union has scheduled April 29, 30 and May 1 as negotiation dates with the company.
The approximately 50 members of Local 4268 work as commercial drivers and in Skilled Trades.
