Still more labour trouble for the provincial government.
The BCGEU is asking the Labour Relations Board to appoint a mediator to assist in contract talks, which have been underway since January.
Union president Darryl Walker says the two sides are still too far apart on the key issues of wage hikes, job security and improved benefits.
The union voted 82 per-cent in favour of job action to back its contract demands earlier this year, but hopes to resume contract talks with the help of a mediator next week.
