Machinists sign One-Year Agreement with PHCP!
Toronto, On – Members of IAMAW Local Lodge 235 have agreed to a one-year collective agreement with PHCP (Professional Hair Care Products) Limited.
“This agreement reflects the current state of the economy in the hair products business,” explained IAMAW District Lodge 78 Business Representative Paul Mitchell.
The 45 members will receive a lump sum payment of $500. The agreement also provides an extra statutory holiday and improved contract language regarding layoffs. “The one notable improvement in this agreement is that now the employer will cover the costs of the negotiating committee during contract bargaining instead of the union,” said Mitchell.
IAMAW, among the largest industrial trade unions in North America, represents more than 700,000 active and retired members, and administers more than 5,000 contracts in transportation, woodworking, aerospace, manufacturing and defense related industries.
