Tentative deal reached for striking Toronto Pearson airport ground crew
TORONTO — Striking ground crew workers at Canada’s busiest airport have reached a tentative deal with their employer.
Teamsters Canada and Swissport say the deal involving the workers at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport was struck on Tuesday, although details of the tentative agreement won’t be released until it has been ratified in the coming days.
About 700 cabin cleaners, baggage handlers and other ground crew workers employed by Swissport at Pearson have been on strike since late July.
Union spokesman Christopher Monette says the union is recommending its members accept the offer.
