The Workers with Disabilities (WWD) Committee has a vacancy that we wish to fill by appointment. The WWD Committee consists of seven Ontario CUPE members, elected every two years at the Human Rights Convention. The Committee convenes twice a year for two-day meetings, as well as a three-day Equity Retreat where all Equity committee members are invited. We also have monthly phone meetings as we work on various campaigns and assignments.

This year the CUPE Ontario Young Workers Committee is organizing a conference in the fall for all young CUPE members (30 years of age and under) living in Ontario. As the conference date is approaching, we’re reaching out to young workers to join us for a planning session this Wednesday to hear your ideas on what speakers, panel discussions, training workshops and issues you would like to see discussed at the conference.
On April 28, we are encouraging all CUPE members across the province to observe a moment of silence in recognition of workers who have been killed or injured on the job and in protest of the government’s failure to protect them from COVID-19.
Have you seen a reduction or cut in hours due to clinics closing? Please contact CUPE Local 786 immediately.
CUPE has been receiving many questions from members concerning COVID-19 vaccines. This document addresses some of the most frequently asked questions.
