The Malta Union of Teachers said Saturday that 92.3% of MCAST lecturers have approved the collective agreement the union negotiated with the government.
418 MCAST members were eligible to vote following their active registration, MUT said.
This is the conclusion of a long process of negotiations with the Government, which included years of preparatory work and consultations with members.
The MUT has just communicated formally with the Minister of Education Clifton Grima to proceed with the signing of the new MCAST collective agreement, the union said.
The agreement was reached earlier this year after years of negotiations which had also led the union to call industrial action.
