On Thursday, November 14, 2013, contract staff at Wilfrid Laurier University voted in favour of a strike. Of those who voted, 90.6 per cent supported the strike mandate.
A date for mediation has been set for November 26th.
The 376 contract faculty at Laurier are represented by the Wilfrid Laurier University Faculty Association (WLUFA). As reported in last week’s OCUFA Report, the contract faculty unit is fighting for better job security, access to benefits, and fair compensation.
