CPR AND TEAMSTERS CANADA RAIL CONFERENCE ANNOUNCE FOUR-YEAR CONTRACT RATIFIED BY TRAIN CREW EMPLOYEES

CALGARY — The Teamsters Canada Rail Conference and Canadian Pacific Railway announced that a four-year collective agreement has been ratified by train crew employees.

The agreement with CPR’s 4,500 train crew employees, the railway’s largest bargaining group, extends to the end of 2006. It provides for wage, pension and benefits improvements, as well as work rule changes that will generate increased productivity. Wage increases are 2 per cent for 2003, 3 per cent for 2004, 2.5 per cent for 2005 and 3 per cent for 2006.

Rob Ritchie, President and Chief Executive Officer of CPR, said: “We have achieved a balanced agreement that brings value to our employees and our shareholders and ensures a stable, productive relationship with the Teamsters. The wage, benefit and work rule improvements are consistent with the pattern CPR has established in other collective agreements.”

George Hucker, Vice-President and National Legislative Representative with the Teamsters, said the agreement is the first with CPR since the Teamsters gained bargaining rights in 2004. “In addition to improvements secured in traditional areas, this agreement includes a framework to move forward in areas that will improve lifestyle for our membership.”

On January 14, CPR and the Maintenance of Way Division of the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, which represents approximately 2,150 track maintenance employees, reached a Memorandum of Settlement to renew their collective agreement through the end of 2006. Details of the three-year settlement are not available pending ratification. Results of the ratification vote are expected in March.
