UFCW 1006A is proud to welcome our new members from DiFranco Security Services in Toronto into the union family.
The bargaining unit consists of approximately 30 members who work as security guards at condos and office buildings for concierge services and security patrols.
“I’m proud to congratulate our newest members from DiFranco Security Services on their strong victory,” said President Wayne Hanley. “UFCW 1006A is proud to be Ontario’s best union for security guards, helping them secure rights and protections and improve their working conditions. Member unity and support will be vital as we now set our focus to preparing the groundwork to negotiate a first union contract.”
The key issues leading to unionization, included hours, wages, favouritism and treatment.
“The solidarity of the membership was impressive,” said Lesley Prince, Organizing Director for UFCW 1006A. “It was inspiring to see the workers come together to improve their rights, working conditions and achieve fairness for each other.”
UFCW 1006A proudly represents 8,000 workers in the security sector.
