The union representing Canada Post workers says an unfair labour practice complaint over the company’s layoffs has been resolved, calling it an important victory for workers’ rights.

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers filed the complaint with the Canada Industrial Relations Board on Nov. 29 after hundreds of striking postal workers received temporary layoff notices while on strike.
