NWU says it making significant inroads in ensuring workers in the banking sector are unionized

The Recognition Claim between the Management of Bank of Nova Scotia and the National Workers Union (NWU) has reached Stage Two (2).

Labor Commissioner, Ray Narcisse has written to the Managing Director of the Bank of Nova Scotia informing the company of the authenticity of the National Workers Union’s claim. The Commissioner’s letter went on to state that in keeping with section 360 of the Labor Act, the company can either convey its acceptance or doubt. Should the company hold on to the latter, a secret ballot poll will have to be taken among the workers to verify the NWU’s claim. The NWU has made good strides within the financial services sector.
