The decision comes after the 950-room hotel locked out unionized employees last month, following their rejection of a contract proposal in part due to disagreement about the use of employment agencies.

The hotel says workers at more than 20 other Quebec hotels have accepted a similar offer, which includes a salary increase of 21 per cent over four years, with 10 per cent in the first year.

The roughly 600 unionized workers at the Queen Elizabeth had organized a number of surprise strikes in recent months.

The union today accused the hotel of using replacement workers, following the publication of a Labour Department report that found hotel employees performed the work of unionized workers during a strike in September.
