Prince George, B.C. –  The strike by members of the Compensation Employees Union,  at WorkSafe BC  is over.

The  union  had served strike notice on the 13th of July, and job action,  which was essentially a work to rule campaign, started on  the 16th.

The union and Public Service Employers Council  reached a tentative  agreement late last week.

The agreement covers five years from April 1st of 2014.  It gives the  workers a 5.5% wage  increase over the  length of the contract.  

The union is recommending  the membership accept the  tentative  agreement.  The Compensation Employees union represents 2100  workers throughout the province  including  those who work in Prince George.
