Today, we mark an exciting and historic occasion as Local 1000A and Local 206 come together as one to form a stronger, more diverse and powerful local union, UFCW Canada Local 1006A.
"I am very grateful to my union for protecting my rights as a No Frills employee. Upon starting my university studies in 2014, I applied for the UFCW Local 1000A scholarship... Since the union’s scholarship helped reduce the high cost of university, the union has made a positive impact in my life." – Connor Hartson, Gord and Kim's No Frills in Kingston
On April 28, your union will join labour and community allies in coming together to mark the National Day of Mourning. This event is about remembering workers killed, injured or made ill on the job and resolving to prevent future tragedies.
The Day of Mourning is an annual tradition that was started by the Canadian Labour Congress in 1984.
Join your union in observing Rainbow Week from May 11 to 17.
Beloved labour leader UFCW Local 1518 President Kimberly Novak passed away this past weekend, surrounded by family and loved ones.
UFCW 1006A's Spring Stewards Training is underway at the union office.
Every April 28, 1006A encourages our members to reflect on the National Day of Mourning and remember the thousands of workers killed, injured or made ill at work.
1006A steward Matthew Cascagnette stepped up to help when he learned an elderly member wasn’t getting properly paid for his breaks.
UFCW 1006A stewards are stepping up to become mental health advocates with our local union. The training is now open to all members of 1006A.
UFCW 1006A members working as security guards at Chatham-Kent Health Alliance have ratified a new union contract.
Unionized security guards’ rights are under attack, as non-union security agencies increasingly win contract bids for worksites from unionized employers who then refuse to recognize existing union contracts.
