Join the Good Jobs Revolution

A decent living and hope for the future.

For most of us, that’s all we want, all we need, to be happy and live fulfilling lives. And it’s what Unifor wants, too.

The low-paying precarious jobs that define today’s economy won’t provide the security and stability workers need. Instead, they promise a country in which young people can expect, for the first time in Canadian history, to be worse off than their parents.  Click Here for more.
