Teachers await decision of the Arbitration Board in contract talks

Teachers in the province are awaiting the decision of the Arbitration Board tasked to come up with the award that forms the basis of a new teachers’ contract.  

A release from the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation states that he binding arbitration hearing between the Teachers’ Bargaining Committee and Government-Trustee Bargaining Committee concluded just after 6 pm on Wednesday, December 18.   

There is no indication when the decision will be released. Until then, it’s a waiting game for the Federation and its 14,000 members. The STF says it will provide a comment at that time.
