# Labour action avoided and classes continue

I am delighted to let you know that Ontario’s 24 polytechnics and colleges — including Seneca Polytechnic — and the union representing professors, librarians and counsellors, have agreed to binding arbitration to arrive at a new contract.

That means there will be no disruption to your studies and the arbitrator will resolve any outstanding negotiating issues, avoiding any labour action.

My best wishes to you for a successful Winter 2025 Term.
