Contract negotiations with Transdev have been underway since November 2023
The union that represents more than 600 HandyDART workers in Metro Vancouver says they’ll go on strike on Aug. 26 if a tentative agreement with their employer can’t be reached.
Union president Joe McCann says in the statement that escalating job actions began in July, including refusal to wear uniforms, collect fares or work overtime. The HandyDART service offers door-to-door transport for people with physical and cognitive disabilities, including the elderly, that prevent them from using other public transport.
