However, this was not done as the Township felt that the letter should have gone directly from the lawyer to the AIB.

He also mentioned the issue of pay for weekend standby duty, double time for Sunday work and a desire to have the Township pay half the cost of safety boots. Another issue cited was the fact that equipment operators are responsible for their own maintenance and repairs, and although all machinery does receive routine safety checks by a licenced mechanic there is some concern about doing repairs on such things as truck breaks, which could present a potential safety hazard. The Scugog workers are also looking at the wage scales of employees in neigh- bouring townships and the spokesman claimed they are about $2. "hour less than Brock and Uxbridge, and close to $3. less than Whitby 'and Oshawa. In talking about the labour difficulties during the last year, the spokesman con- cluded that 'if things had gone a little smoother, the union could have been held off, for a little while, any- way." Russ Whitney of the CUPE regional office in Toronto told Port Perry Star that the hearing January 9 will deter- mine if at least 55 percent of the workers in the group want to join the union, and if this and other criteria are satisfied, the official certifi- cation could take place with- in a week after the meeting. Mr. Whitney added that upon certification the union will begin immediate nego- tiations with the Township for a 1978 contract for the workers. He said that the AIB restrictions would prob- ably rule out further wage increases ahove the 45 cents .an hour granted by the Township December 28, but the union would be seeking a NONQUON TRAVEL contract and conditions simi- 985-2336 lar to those of the other h i municipalities in the Region.
