BUS Service TO/FROM YYZ and Hamilton Airport, Kitchener/Waterloo Regional Airport
Air Canada, BUS or PLANE UNIFOR SCOPE IS STILL THE SAME!
The Union has organized a silent information picket at Toronto Pearson Airport tomorrow, June 5, from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM. We encourage all members who are able to attend to show their support. If you have a uniform, please wear it in full. Members on scheduled breaks during the picket times are also welcome to join us.
The Unifor Air Canada Bargaining Committee has filed a policy grievance concerning the work, including but not limited to check-in, seat selection, and boarding of the bus segments, being performed by Landline bus company staff at YHM and YKF. We assert that this work falls within our scope as both locations are part of the Toronto base. Additionally, the District Chair has filed a district grievance claiming that the work done by Landline bus company at Pearson is exclusively within our scope and should be immediately assigned to the members at D301.
Scope work is defined in Article 4 of our Collective Agreement. It is crucial that we all defend this work, as without it, our jobs could be quickly outsourced to an external company. We cannot allow any erosion of our scope work.
This information picket will send a powerful message to the company that we will not tolerate this violation of the Collective Agreement. Everyone is welcome to join President Tammy Moore, the Unifor Air Canada Bargaining Committee, and the leadership from District 301 at this information picket.
