Kemess heads to mediation

About 300 unionized production and maintenance workers at Northgate Exploration‘s (NGX-T) Kemess South gold-copper mine in British Columbia have rejected a recently negotiated 3-year collective agreement.

The employees, represented by local 115 of the International Union of Operating Engineers, voted 58.8% against the deal despite the bargaining committee’s recommendation to accept.

The union has applied to the British Columbia Labour Relations Board for mediation, which was expected to begin May 22.
