SYDNEY, Nova Scotia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Administrative and support staff at Cape Breton University (CBU) achieved a tentative agreement on September 7 after one day of conciliation.

“The bargaining committee worked very hard to achieve this deal and I am very proud of them,” said CUPE Local 3131 President Allana Serroul.

Details of the contract will not be made available until it has been presented to CUPE 3131 members and a ratification vote takes place. The members will be asked to vote on the tentative agreement later next week.
