Fort McMurray, AB – May 13, 2013 – On May 9, 2013, the union representing our driver force, Teamsters Local 362, conducted a strike authorization vote.  While the union did receive favourable authorization in this regard there is no immediate intention by either party to go down this road.  In fact both parties, along with an appointed mediator, will be returning to the table in the coming weeks to continue our respectful and collaborative discussions.  We fully expect these discussions to result in a fair and equitable settlement for all parties concerned.

Further updates will be released as details are available.

History

Diversified Transportation was born when construction of the Great Canadian Oil Sands (GCOS) was launched in 1964 and was at the forefront ensuring the transportation of workers throughout its development. In 1967 when GCOS commenced commercial oil sands production, Diversified introduced its daily "employee transportation service" for oil sands employees. The service provided employees with the opportunity to board Diversified motorcoaches at pick-up locations near their homes throughout the City of Fort McMurray to the plant site.
