**************************** NOSM committed to reaching fair collective agreement with OPSEU staff unit
The Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM) is committed to reaching a first collective agreement with the school's Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) staff unit which fairly reflects the unique nature of NOSM and its workforce.
Since terminating mediation shortly after midnight early Monday morning, the now striking OPSEU staff unit has publicly identified wages, sick leaves and family leaves, hours of work, overtime, as major issues for the unionized employees.
NOSM has been, and continues to be, respectful of the bargaining process, and looks forward to returning to the table to continue discussions.
