Show solidarity with @wlufa.bsky.social, seeking a remedy for wages lost under Bill 124. Bill 124 was ruled unconstitutional last year in Ontario. It stripped Contract Faculty and many others of their bargaining rights. Employers must bargain in good faith. @ocufa.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social

A Green Poster with people holding up signs. "Reform the Employment Standards Act Language to include equal pay for work of equivalent value for workers in the province, including contract faculty, using a pro rata system."
Workers deserve #equalpay for #equalwork, including contract faculty. It’s time to reform the Employment Standards Act and adopt a pro rata system for fair wages. Join @ocufa.bsky.social for #fairness4cf this #ONElxn: ocufa.on.ca/campaigns/co...

Purple poster with people holding signs. For many contract faculty, “part-time” teaching is not their side job. It’s their only employment and sole source of income. Hiring contract faculty into permanent positions will create more good jobs on our campuses and allow them to invest in their local economies.
For many CF, “part-time” teaching isn’t a side gig—it’s their main source of income. On @ocufa.bsky.social's Social Media Day of Action, we’re showing why this #ONElxn must bring permanent work to our campuses, strengthening both jobs and local economies. ocufa.on.ca/campaigns/co... #fairness4cf
