Unionized workers at Enwin Utilities have a deal, but they aren't happy about it.

The 75 workers met Thursday afternoon and voted 60 per cent in favour of a new agreement

The vote result indicates workers are still not overly pleased with the agreement.

Wednesday they rejected a tentative contract. The new deal pretty well reflects the one that was turned down.

A management demand that workers agree to a flexible working hours arrangement was dropped.

Brian Manninger, the business rep for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, said overall it's a fair deal.

"Is it a great collective agreement? No," Manninger said. "The members have spoken, I'm glad they have a collective agreement."

The new deal does includes a reduction in the annual number of sick days from 18 to 10. The workers will receive a wage increase of 1.5 per cent in each year of the contract.

"I'm glad we got it without a work stoppage. They take years to get over. We built a good relationship with this company over the last couple years and we intend to maintain it.

The previous contract expired at the end of march.

George King, the lawyer representing Enwin, said the company is pleased the workers voted in favour of the contract:

"We've worked really hard it. We had good dialogue. Both sides recognize the importance of having a good dialogue," King said. "It was hard work. We put a lot of time and work into these negotiations."
