“As the union for cannabis workers, UFCW continues to see strong interest from workers looking to make improvements and protect their rights in this growing industry,” said President Wayne Hanley.
Local 1006A members working at Homewood Suites by Hilton in Markham ratified a new union contract with strong gains in spite of the challenges posed by COVID-19.
"I noticed a lot of my co-workers were not able to bring forth their issues because of the language barrier, and I've decided to step forth and help those in need.”
When Katherine Mazzocco found out she won the 1006A union scholarship, she quickly ran to her mom and had a mini celebration.
