Protective shields will go a long way to reducing the spread of COVID-19 and protecting transit drivers, who provide essential transportation service to residents of York Region.
It is important that members know what their compensation options are if they are exposed or contract COVID-19 at work.
We are urging York Region to protect the health and safety of transit drivers, who interact daily with residents across York Region.
This first agreement includes big wins, such as a 39 hour per week guarantee for all full-time transit operators as well as 24 hours per year of paid sick time.
