Another tentative deal reached between Windsor Salt and Unifor

The union representing striking Windsor Salt employees has announced a new tentative agreement.

Unifor Locals 240 and 1959 announced Thursday afternoon that they had reached a potential deal with Stone Canyon Industries, the parent company of Windsor Salt.

About 250 employees have been off the job since February 17. Local 240 represents those in the offices, and Local 1959 represents workers at the Ojibway Mine, plus a separate unit at the evaporation processing fields.

Bargaining had been put on hold after a previous tentative deal was rejected by union membership last month.

Details of the agreement will not be made public until after a ratification vote takes place on Sunday.

More to come.
