ULFA, ULethbridge agree to try mediation for second time

The University of Lethbridge Faculty Association (ULFA) and the University of Lethbridge have agreed to engage in mediation for a second time to attempt to settle their labour dispute. Both sides will be meeting with arbitrator David Jones for multiple sessions in the next weeks. If no settlement is negotiated by the process, the mediator will produce a report and recommendations, which could be used as a basis for a collective agreement. “The university remains committed to settling an agreement that respects the value of our faculty, honours our responsibilities to students and projects the university’s fundamental need for financial stability and long-term sustainability,” read a statement from ULethbridge.
