Join Justice for Workers and the Ontario Federation of Labour on Tuesday, October 19, 2021, from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. We'll be taking action to extend and restore the Canada Recovery Benefits and fix Employment Insurance; we'll be organizing to win at least 10 paid sick days federally and provincially/territorially; we'll be building safe and healthy workplaces; and standing shoulder to shoulder with gig workers and personal support workers.
After sharing the latest political updates, we'll be hosting the following breakout groups to plan next steps:
-
Federal issues action (Extend CERB; Fix EI; Migrant justice; Indigenous rights)
-
Employer-paid sick days for all (At least 10 paid sick days permanently, and an additional 14 days during health outbreaks)
- Safe and healthy workplaces (Status for all workers; Employer-paid PPE; Social distancing at work and in all staff quarters; Employer-paid sick leave; Right to refuse unsafe work)
-
Solidarity with CUPE 4763, workers at the Bob Rumball Centre for Excellence for the Deaf (conducted in ASL and English)
- Solidarity with gig workers (End misclassification; Stop the Uberization of work; Full and equal rights for gig workers)
RSVP for the Zoom link to be emailed to you.
