Health care hospitality workers at McKellar Place, an independent senior living facility in the city of Thunder Bay in Ontario, Canada, recently voted unanimously in favor of joining UFCW Local 175.
Our newest members work as housekeepers, front clerks, and kitchen staff at McKellar Place. The workers contacted our union to help them achieve better working conditions, curb mistreatment, address concerns with scheduling, and ensure wages were paid on time.
“Workers deserve to be treated with dignity and respect,” said UFCW Local 175 President Kelly Tosato. “These workers stood up for themselves and we will have their backs as they work toward making positive changes through collective bargaining as union members.”
