Circon Employees Gain Wage, Pension Improvements with New Contract

North York, ON—The employees of Circon Construction Corporation, based in North York, unanimously ratified a renewed collective agreement.

The agreement includes wage increases of 6.5 percent over the term of the agreement, plus an increase to pension contributions and improved vacation pay. The construction labourers and carpenters employed by the company have been represented by Construction Workers Union, CLAC Local 52, since 2014.

“Despite the uncertain road ahead, we were able to achieve solid gains for our members working at Circon,” says Robert Brink, CLAC representative. “Our committee adjusted to the quirks of negotiating over video conference and worked on finding solutions that work well for all the parties.”
