Workers at Covenant Health St. Therese Villa in Lethbridge, Alberta, have entered into negotiations with their employer. According to Curtis Jackson, vice president of the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees Executive Office, Southern Region, they are looking for potential wage increase of 35 per cent over two years. He says the offer from the employer is far from that. Jackson says there are now 82-thousand public sector workers in negotiations across the province and they are seeing the same offer across the board.
