RDSB and union reach tentative agreement

SUDBURY—Rainbow District School Board (RDSB) and the federation representing the educational support staff unit in Sudbury, Espanola and Manitoulin Island have reached a tentative agreement at the local level. 

Support staff are represented by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) District 3. The educational support staff unit includes administrative assistants, clerical and library staff as well as information services personnel. 

The new deal, if ratified, will be in effect from September 1, 2022, to August 31, 2026, aligning with the provincial agreement at the central bargaining table.

“We commend the bargaining teams from the board and the federation for working together to achieve this tentative agreement at the local level,” said RDSB chair David Farrow. “We value our support staff. They are an integral part of the team of caring adults who support student success in Rainbow schools.”

“The educational support staff unit is pleased that we were able to reach a tentative agreement with (RDSB),” said President Stephanie Daoust. “We look forward to presenting the tentative agreement at the local level to our membership.”
