CEPEP WORKERS DEMAND REHIRING

Scores of former CEPEP employees are demanding answers from the government over the recent termination of hundreds of contracts which led to the dismissal of thousands of workers.

On Wednesday they protested outside CEPEP’s Ste Madeleine head office, calling for dialogue and assurances they would be rehired when new contracts are issued.

Media personnel were locked out of the CEPEP building when they attempted to contact the company’s CEO for comment.
