by Bruce Parkinson
Air Canada has announced that it has reached a new tentative collective agreement with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW) representing the airline’s 11,000 Technical Operations, Maintenance and Operational Support (TMOS) group, which includes Technical Operations, Airports and Cargo, Logistics and Supply employees.
The four-year collective agreement would take effect retroactively from April 1, 2026, and would remain in place until March 31, 2030.
The tentative agreement is subject to ratification by the union membership, which is expected to be completed over the coming days.
If ratified, this would represent the sixth collective agreement concluded at Air Canada this year.
