Lockout Notice

Labour troubles are continuing to escalate at Greenwood Forest Products in Penticton.

The company is threatening to lockout employees next week if they refuse to take wage benefit concessions which equal roughly a 30 percent pay cut.

According to the union, the company served lockout notice to 75 unionized employees on Wednesday.

The union says they will not agree to the concessions. Management at Greenwood Forest Products will not comment directly, but says they will put out a news release when they have something to say.
