Workers from Courtyard By Marriot Mississauga Airport Corporate Centre West voted to join UFCW 1006A.
“Our union is proud to welcome our newest members to our 1006A family,” said President Wayne Hanley. “UFCW 1006A continues to be Ontario’s leading union for hotel workers seeking strong union representation, fairness, respect and dignity at work.”
The bargaining unit consists of 30 members, who work in a variety of roles, including Housekeepers, Housepersons, Maintenance, Front Desk, Bistro, Driver and Auditors.
They joined the local union because of concerns with wages and were seeking strong union representation.
“Workers reached out to our union because they wanted to improve their workplace and stand up for each other,” said Lesley Prince, Organizing Director. “They showed tremendous strength and solidarity in achieving UFCW 1006A representation.”
The former union for the bargaining unit was CLAC and the membership was unhappy with their service and sought UFCW 1006A representation.
