Correctional Officers Preparing For Critical Vote

A big decision lies ahead for correctional officers in Ontario.

Members of the Ontario Public Services Employees Union will vote of a tentative contract on Tuesday.

Local union spokesperson James Nowe says declining the offer could lead to a strike by year’s end.

Nowe says they deal is basically the same as the Unified OPSEU deal that jail guards have already rejected.

The biggest change is a promise to create a separate corrections agreement in the next round of bargaining.

Nowe feels the deal does nothing to combat declining staff levels.
