Labour Update March 23
Posted on 03/22/2020

A tentative agreement with the Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO) for both teachers and education workers was reached at the Central Bargaining Table March 20, 2020.

ETFO has agreed to suspend all job action while awaiting ratification of the agreement. Read media release here.

The Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) suspended all strike sanctions indefinitely, which was announced March 18, 2020.

This includes sanctions that were part of a limited withdrawal of administrative services that has been in place since November 26, 2019. OSSTF had previously announced that rotating full withdrawals of services would be suspended until March 27. That suspension is now also indefinite.

We will continue to provide updates with new information as available.

We thank you for your ongoing patience and understanding during the current Ministerial Order of school closures in response to COVID-19.
