An important message from Susan Margles, Chief People and Safety Officer

Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) are in discussions regarding a potential two-year renewal of current collective agreements. The agreements are for employees represented by both CUPW bargaining units (CUPW-Urban and CUPW-RSMC).

Canada Post has just received the final decision from Arbitrator Elizabeth MacPherson. We are currently reviewing the 57-page document with a commitment to share the details and what they mean to employees shortly.

The Minister of Labour has agreed to extend the arbitration process by six months, to June 30, 2020, at the request of the arbitrator.

This letter is to update you on the ongoing arbitration process between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.
