July 11 (Reuters) - Canada Post Corp CANPT.UL has
abandoned plans to bar workers from their jobs in the ongoing
labor dispute, the country's government-owned mail carrier said
on Sunday, averting a potential nationwide disruption to
service.
The Crown corporation had given a 72-hour notice for a
Monday "lockout" a temporary work stoppage sometimes used as a
labor negotiation tactic.
Canada Post and the union for its workers have been
negotiating for months over wages and pensions.
The talks continue.
