Halton was spared a strike by health care workers today, while some 3,000 of their counterparts across the province rejected a contract offer on Thursday morning.
They went on strike Friday morning at nine Community Care Access Centres (CCAC) across the province.
The strike hit nine of the province’s 14 CCACs, all of which have workers represented by the Ontario Nurses’ Association: Central, Central East, Erie St. Clair, North East, North Simcoe Muskoka, North West, South East, South West and Waterloo Wellington.
Employees at the Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant CCAC, which includes Burlington, voted in favour of accepting the offer.
The strike does not affect the Champlain, Central West, Mississauga Halton – which represents Oakville and Milton – and Toronto Central CCACs, where employees are not represented by the ONA.
