  • If you think that unions have outlived their usefulness, think about this:
  • Over the past 15 years, workers now find:
  • our society promotes a culture of working unpaid overtime
  • permanent jobs continue to be contracted out
  • term employment is epidemic
  • new jobs tend to be lower paid and in the service sector
  • a rise in part-time and precarious employment
  • public services continue to be privatized
  • burnout and cynicism amongst workers has increased
  • a decline in real wages and standard of living
  • people are working longer and harder to keep afloat
  • a growing gap between the lower/middle classes and the rich

And the list goes on…

Support your Union – Get involved!
