UNBC applies for mediator as talks with faculty association fail
PRINCE GEORGE —Update: UNBC’s Faculty Association says a mediator has been appointed in this case though a date for mediated talks has not yet been set.
President Stephen Rader says the main sticking points revolve around wages and contract language. Their last agreement expired back on June 30.
UNBC posted the following statement to its website this afternoon:
The Employer has applied to the Labour Relations Board under Section 74 (1) of the Labour Relations Code. A mediator has been appointed and will contact both parties shortly to arrange meeting dates.
