The local will continue to reach out to the agencies to protect our members and will hold employer accountable for the breach of the code and or any violation of Public Health Directive.
If you are sick, please stay home and call public health for direction.
The Local is working hard to ensure that our members are as safe as possible while at work.

Dear Postal Workers,
On April 28th, we observe the National Day of Mourning to honour those who have lost their lives or suffered in the workplace. This day also serves as a call to action for stricter safety standards. Let’s stand in solidarity with our fellow Postal Workers, advocating for the vital changes our workplaces need and resisting intimidation from management.
