More than 90 per cent of non-essential workers in the largest group of striking Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) workers took strike action during the first week of the labour stoppage, according to new government figures.
An average of 71,000 employees from the core public administration group of 120,000 workers were off the job, according to figures released by the Treasury Board.
