Resumption of Operations – November 14
91ͬ־ Negotiations Updates
Resumption of Operations
This morning the Canada Industrial Relations Board issued an order directing the 91ͬ־ and all its members to resume operations on November 14, 2024, and to continue operations and duties until the Board makes a final determination.
The 91ͬ־ will fully comply with the interim order from the CIRB. As such, effective Thursday, November 14, 2024, dispatching functions will commence on the day shift. Maintenance and operations may begin on the 16:30 shift and are subject to individual terminal operating realities.
With the resumption of work, coupled with an anticipated high volume of vessels and cargo, there will be extensive province-wide labour requirements across all port areas.
In partnership with our member employers, the 91ͬ־ is committed to working closely with ILWU Local 514, ILWU longshore locals and supply chain partners to safely and efficiently resume operations at Canada’s West Coast ports.
The CIRB has scheduled a hearing on Monday, November 18, 2024 to hear the Parties on certain questions raised with respect to the ministerial direction under Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code.
