CUPE 411 is proud to support legislation that addresses workers safety and this most recent event is a prime example of marginalized workers being placed in precarious positions that can have a detrimental effect to their own well being.

Our very own Cody Beyer attended the event and presented the coordinator’s with a modest donation of $250 in support of the evenings sit-in that was meant to bring awareness to the ongoing issues that late night retail clerks are faced with.  As sponsors of the event it was great to see the BC Federation of Labour’s very own Sussanne Skidmore, President and Hermender Sing Kailley, Secretary-Treasurer, in attendance!

Seeing advocacy in action is a beautiful thing as those attending the event were able to engage with the public, young and old, in an effort to bring awareness to some of the challenges workers are faced with.

Thank you to everyone for making events like these possible as we continue to fight for working conditions directly associated with Occupational Health and Safety.

In Solidarity….
