Academic bargaining updates

Updated December 19, 2024

Overview

On December 18, 2024, the Ministry of Labour issued a no-board report to the CAAT-A bargaining team. This means that by January 4, 2025, the union will be in a position to engage in labour action, such as a strike, if they choose.

Mediation is scheduled for January 6 and 7, 2025. While the union will be in a legal strike position, there remains the possibility for mediation to continue or alternative forms of negotiations such as binding arbitration to occur.

What does this mean for the Sheridan community?

Sheridan is closed for the holidays as of noon on Friday, December 20, 2024, and will reopen on Thursday, January 2, 2025.

Services and scheduled classes are unimpacted at this time.
