SIB Political Action
We work on things that matter to all our members and contractors who employ them, such as:
- Labour laws that serve worker and honest employers including fair wages, worker safety, taxation, pension’s reform, workers’ compensation, employment insurance, and health and welfare programs.
- Initiatives that support and promote excellence in training, secure retirement and universal access to healthcare.
- Government programs, policies and initiatives that promote and grow the middle class.
- Campaigns against the underground economy, which exploits workers through substandard wage rates and no employment insurance and workers’ compensation benefits.
- Legislative measure that threatens our members and our union such as the recently repealed Bill C-377.
- Infrastructure funding that creates decent jobs, stimulates the economy and grows the middle class.
- Promotion of responsible energy developments.
LOCAL 2309 POLITICAL ACTION MEANS SUPPORTING PEOPLE AND POLICIES THAT SUPPORT MILLWRIGHT VALUES.
