CALGARY – WestJet Airlines Ltd. said Monday that its 2,600 flight attendants have voted to reject a tentative agreement reached last month.

Ninety per cent of eligible flight attendants voted on the agreement, with 57 per cent of those voting casting ballots against the proposed five-year deal, the ******* said.

The tentative agreement was reached between the ******* and the WestJet Flight Attendant Association Board. WestJet’s flight attendants are not unionized, but represented by an employee association.

The ******* says it will meet in the coming weeks with the association board and focus on understanding specific concerns, following the steps outlined in a dispute resolution process.

The Flight Attendant Association Board is part of the ProActive Communication Team employee association which represents some 9,500 non-management employees at the *******.

Anthony Pascale, chairman of the Flight Attendant Association Board, said he was disappointed by the vote.

“We will survey our members in the coming weeks and re-engage them in the new year,” Pascale said.
