Nov 10, 2010 | 5:21 AM

A potential strike at SIAST could be looming.

Mediated talks between the union and the employer have broken off.

After four days of conciliation the two sides aren't talking, said Gary Earles is the associate vice-president of human resources at SIAST.

After rejecting the union's offer SGEU informed management they are breaking off talks.
Now he says, the ball is in their court, Earles said.
