Air Canada employees who are members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW) union voted last week on three tentative contracts. Two of them, covering 115 clerical workers and 170 financial staff, have now been ratified. Ratification is in progress for the third tentative agreement covering the balance of approximately 11,000 Maintenance, Airport Airside Operations, Cargo, and Cabin Services employees.

Air Canada said in a statement it “welcomes” the ratification and has stated previously that the agreement  "recognizes the contributions and skills of Air Canada's operations and administrative employees." 

The IAMAW represents more than 11,000 employees in Maintenance, Airport Airside Operations, Cabin Services, and Cargo, plus Finance and Clerical at Air Canada, through three separate contracts.
