TTC Strike Averted: Framework Agreement Reached Between Union and Management

 

In a last-minute development, the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 113 have reached a “framework settlement,” effectively averting a planned strike. The agreement comes after intense negotiations and addresses critical issues such as job security, protections against job outsourcing, and benefits for active members and pensioners.
