77.4 Labour Settlement
Whereas
Canada stands second in the world in the number of work days per capita lost due to strikes, many of which are in the public sector;
Whereas
Different techniques for the protection of the worker and the public, beyond the adversarial concept, need to be developed; therefore,
RESOLVED
That The National Council of Women of Canada urge the Government of Canada to encourage:
- Settlement of strikes in the public sector by the Final End Selection Method when negotiations have ceased to make progress;
- Management and labour to work toward the development of co-management principles and techniques; and,
- The attendance of both management and labour leaders at international economic conferences as observers, so they may become aware of Canada’s position as shifts and changes develop in world economics.
