Dear Parents and Guardians,
This morning, the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario (ETFO) has advised that it intends to start “work-to-rule” strike action in schools across the province, effective November 26, 2019. The full list of sanctions can be found on the ETFO website.
The ETFO represents OCDSB elementary teachers and occasional teachers. We remain hopeful that an agreement can be reached before this action comes into effect.
We will be reviewing the terms put forward by ETFO and will be meeting with local union leaders to better understand what impact labour disruptions will have on students. We will provide you with an update next week with more information.
While we know the ETFO “work-to-rule” will have some impact, our schools will remain open and classes are expected to continue as scheduled.
Our primary focus in contingency planning for strike action is the health and safety of students.
As you know, we are currently in a period of negotiations and there is always potential for such labour disruptions to escalate further. Parents with young children or those in extended day programs may wish to consider in advance what other options they might have for childcare or speak with their employer about possible flexibility in work arrangements.
Regular updates will continue to be provided by email and posting of the latest news to our Labour Negotiations webpage and OCDSB social media accounts.
Thank You.
