SHAME! Full of lies and half truths!!
-the “average salary” stat is padded with non-union management roles.
-the average inflation for 2025 is 2%
-union employees have yet to be compensated for the unconstitutional wage freeze from Bill 124 (about 5.75%)

"The consequences of WSIB dragging the labour dispute out are real and growing for Ontarians." None of us can afford to be without an income in this economic climate, yet #OCEU members have been locked out with no pay or healthcare benefits for 5 weeks.
Please help end the 33-day-long lockout now.

The refusal to allow workers to vote, the rejection of compromise, &the attempt to use WSIB to set a pattern for broader public sector bargaining all point to a calculated, direct government agenda.

Please support WSIB workers in ending this strike so we can get back to work, and resume providing full services for the injured workers of Ontario! The employer has locked us out while we fight for a fair contact.

Ford & WSIB Are Failing Injured Workers—Stop the Strike NOW

Ford and his appointees at the WSIB are giving BILLIONS back to bosses instead of helping injured workers, all while sending Canadian jobs to the US and making deals with US companies.

Workers at the WSIB deserve a fair deal! They want to get back to their jobs, helping injured workers. WSIB management needs to get back to the bargaining table. The Conservative Government needs to start protecting Ontario workers, and stop outsourcing their jobs to the US.

WSIB workers have had stagnant wages since bill C-124, but management hasn't. WSIB workers deserve to catch up. Send a letter and tell the WSIB board to end the strike.

I joined workers from the Worker Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) on strike. They are the front line of dealing with injured workers. Doug Ford is outsourcing work to the United States and leaving these workers with huge workloads.
They deserve a fair deal.

Thank you @charlieangus104.bsky.social WSIB has never been in a better position to give workers a fair deal. It's refunded $4B to employers this year alone, and still in a surplus position. This lockout is not about its workers asks at the bargaining table, it's about undermining organized labour.
