Our members have been out beautifying the neighbourhood with posters to spread awareness about our phone line for workers. Because no one should have to deal with problems at work alone!

Here are three more signs your boss might not be paying you all that you are owed!

We need to change our labour laws to make sure all of us are protected on the job. Get involved in the Workers’ Action Centre Stop Wage Theft campaign so we can collectively fight for stronger legislation and better enforcement. Together, we can put an end to wage theft!

“I wish that this were a rare situation, but these struggles are shockingly common in Ontario…The Ontario government has not made stopping a priority.”

🚨 Sunrise Caribbean, pay your workers. Ministry of Labour, do your job! 🚨

13 former employees, owed nearly $115,000 in wages plus $133,000 in damages — and yet they have received nothing. Even with a ruling by the Ministry of Labour, the Ontario government has shown their priorities. They are giving employers free passes to take advantage of workers, including those who are refugees and have already endured so much. It’s time we put an end to it now!
