NEXT WEEKS EXECUTIVE VISIBILITY WILL BE AT CORE AND BRAMPTON. SEE YOU THERE !

“Listen Up” campaign in full swing,

The local Executive is aware of ongoing scheduling issues. As such, we have sent communication to the National and Bargaining Committee who are part of LRC that these issues need to be addressed immediately. We must work hard to ensure scheduling reflects our commitment to a Stress free environment and better focus on work-life balance for all members.

In Solidarity,

Lee, Brian, Chris

Dear members,

It has been more than four months since 65 women at Port Arthur Health Centre, members of Local 229, first went on strike, protesting low wages and precarious employment conditions. Not only does the employer refuse to negotiate, but they continue to hire scabs with questionable experience and qualifications.

This is a blatant attempt to starve out these striking workers – we are asking for your support to fight against it. This job posting is seeking scabs at the Port Arthur Health Centre. Today we are asking you to take a moment and send in an application. If enough members send in applications we will flood the employer’s inbox and severely hinder the process of hiring scabs.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Angie Martz at angie@unifor229.com and 1-807-474-4229 ext 2.
