Workers at Shell's Scotford facility in Canada move to set up strike vote
Jun 14, 2024 10:12 AM

June 14 (Reuters) - Unifor union said on Friday its

members at Shell's Scotford refinery in Canada have

applied to the Alberta labor regulator for a strike vote later

this month after rejecting a mediator's terms of settlement

related to compensation.

The Scotford complex at Alberta consists of a bitumen

upgrader, oil refinery, chemicals plant and a carbon capture and

storage facility.

The upgrader has a capacity of 320,000 barrels of oil

equivalent per day of diluted bitumen, according to the company.

The union said its Local 530-A members rejected the

mediator's recommendations since it would have kept the

compensation of refinery workers at Scotford "well-below

industry standards".

Shell did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for

comment.
