Local 1000A wins injunction against Loblaws
UFCW Canada Local 1000A recently announced that food retail members have won a court injunction to stop Loblaws Supermarkets Ltd.’s inappropriate application of a letter of understanding in the collective agreement. Letter of Understanding 59 concerns the conversion of a conventional store to a Great Food banner and states if a member does not regularly work a particular time or day at their store, they will not be required to make themselves available for work at that time or day in the Great Food banner if it’s for legitimate reasons and not personal preference.
