SGEU talks break off with SIAST

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.

The union has not given any strike notice as of yet, but employees at campuses across the province have previously voted 78 percent in favour of strike action.
