ICSG Child Care Workers Locked Out!

ICSG early years professionals are fighting for fair wages, paid sick days, WSIB coverage, and pension benefits. These child care workers want to get back to work, but in order to care for others, they must also secure decent work.

Join the picket line to support these world building professionals!

Picket Hours 8:00am-12:00pm

Monday October 19th at Pineway (110 Pineway Blvd)

Tuesday October 20th at Children Are People (272 Codsell Ave)

Wednesday October 21st at Tumpane (48 Tumpane St)

Thursday October 22nd at Baycrest (50 Ameer Avenue)

Friday October 23rd at Bon Aventure (295 Dufferin St)

 

We didn’t walk out, we’re just finally standing up.

CUPE 2484 has been clear and consistent; ICSG workers shouldn’t be earning over $10/hour less than other child care workers represented by CUPE 2484.

Workers are fighting for:

  • their work to be protected from contracting to agency staff

  • more than 6 paid sick days

  • WSIB coverage

  • a pension to retire with dignity after a lifetime of service

These decent work tenets will continue to guide our negotiations, with the ultimate goal of a workplace that provides reliable child care for years to come with a well supported workforce.
