27 May 2016, Ottawa — Since December 16, 2015, PSAC members employed by the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (the OLG) have demonstrated tremendous and overwhelming solidarity in the face of a brutal five-month lock out imposed by the OLG.
Today, following the successful lobbying efforts of our members, including their direct conversations with the Premier of Ontario, the union and the employer agreed to a process of binding arbitration to resolve all outstanding issues between parties.
PSAC members at the OLG will return to work starting Thursday, June 2, 2016.
We congratulate our members for the tremendous courage and determination they brought to the picket line and the bargaining table.
