Notice to all members of Sheet Metal Workers International Association employed in ICI Roofing in the Province of Ontario
Mississauga – The Roofing Negotiating Committee and your Ontario elected leadership are writing to provide the most recent update to 2025 Roofing Negotiations. Your Negotiating Committee met with representatives of the Labour Relations Section of the Ontario Industrial Roofing Contractors’ Association on April 22, 23 and 24 2025 in Toronto. Negotiations were productive but the parties have not reached an agreement on many local issues.
At this time, we have only exchanged a partial proposal for increases to wages and foreman premiums. The Union and Employers remain deadlocked on reducing the length of daily and weekly hours of work. We are scheduled to return to negotiations on Tuesday May 6 and Wednesday May 7.
If we cannot get a fair resolution for hours of work and reasonable increase in wages, we will be scheduling strike votes.
At this time your Negotiating Committee is optimistic we can get a deal next week.
Your Negotiating Committee will provide a further update on negotiations as information becomes available
Please return to this webpage or your Local’s website and/or social media for all future updates.
In Solidarity
Roofing Negotiating Committee
