Union officials did not appear for the meeting, Sharp said, adding that employees will not: be called back to work until letters of agreement with the union are signed. The new contract gives workers who don’t receive tips a nine-per- cent wage increase this year, followed by five per cent and eight per cent over the next two years. Bellhops, waiters and waitresses will recelve five-per-cent pay in- crease for each of the three years, the same offer they turned down before the strike began. However, the workers did win a pension, better working conditions and more protection from layoffs, union officials said. ‘NOT INVITED’ George Pineo, union secretary and business manager, said union representatives didn’t receive an invitation to the meeting to sign letters of agreement on the con- tract, which workers accepted with a Ms to 163 vote. ‘We had rio idea the meeting was being scheduled for our benefit,” he. said. al agreement with It is ‘almost unheard of in negotiations to “sign contracts the day after" they are ratified because they must be scrutinized carefully, an angry Pineo sald.

Union officals have said the language in the agreement is such that employees might win retroactive pay before the Ontario Labor Relations Baord. , But Sharp said the issue of retroactive pay was never part of negotiations. “We have never said we would include retroactive pay and there's no way we will now.” Sharp said that during bargaining last week, the union altered the “typed” agreement to insert'a retroactive pay provision. When the hotels said they wouldn’t accept the clause, the union told the Ontario government mediator it would accept the contract offer as it stood, she said. Pineo refused comment on Sharp's claims, and would only say that the retroactive pay issue is under discussion. A meeting with hotel officals has been scheduled for Tuesday.
