Members of local 2034 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) set up a picket line Friday outside of Dauphin’s Manitoba Hydro building on Whitmore Avenue.

A series of rotating strikes began earlier this week when the union representing electrical workers at Manitoba Hydro rejected the company's latest offer.

IBEW represents roughly 2,300 Manitoba Hydro workers.

Manitoba Hydro's media relations officer said in a release that the company "has contingency plans in place to ensure it can continue to provide its essential and emergency service to customers and maintain public safety around its facilities and infrastructure."
