ICBC workers plan one day walkout

After one day of job action coordinated with the BC Government and Service Employees’ Union earlier this month, COPE Local 378 says more strike action is coming.

It’ll be on September 18th just for the one day.

COPE local 378 president David Black says more than 15-hundred members at 55 ICBC claim centres will be striking that day.

The job action taken on September 5th was meant to get ICBC and the government’s attention to get them back to the bargaining table.

“And unfortunately that’s been unsuccessful so we feel the need to take other action with other members on September 18th.”

Black says essential services will still be provided.

Members have been without a contract for two years.
