I say reduce [Canadian Union of Postal Workers] salaries for incoming employees. Why not. If someone will do it for less, go for it.
"One of the issues is a salary reductions for new employees. The company wants to reduce labour costs by reducing the salary of new employees from $24 an hour to $17.50, according to the union.
Close to 20,000 of Canada Post’s 48,000 unionized workers are eligible to retire over the next 10 years."
Canada Post strike averted ? for now
Paying them $24 an hour doesn't seem to help. In the last year, I've had to request that a cheque be re-issued three times (the first two weren't cashed), and request that a work contract be re-issued twice. I registered a complaint with Canada Post 2 years ago, have called to update that the problem isn't solved - most recently last week. Let's try the $17 an hour guys.
