PRINCE GEORGE — The Jim Pattison Broadcast Group (JPBG-owned) and its unionized employees have reached an agreement on a new contract.

The four-year deal was ratified by members of Unifor Local 1010 on Wednesday (Sept. 25).

The negotiation was unique in that it brought employees at all three JPBG-owned, unionized television stations under the same agreement.

In addition to CKPG-TV in Prince George, JPBG also operates CFJC-TV in Kamloops and CHAT-TV in Medicine Hat.

The agreement includes 1.75 per cent-per-year wage increases, increases in vacation time and language that protects employees in the event of work being transferred between the three stations.
