WSIB Rejects Unions Latest Offer
TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 8, 2025-- After hearing nothing from the employer for over a week, the union and employer met to exchange proposals, but remain far apart on wages, workload, and employer cuts to seniority rights. The union has made significant movements to try and find a fair compromise, but after significant setbacks, the mediator made the decision to call-off the mediation. OCEU is deeply disappointed that the employer rejected our proposal and hasn't presented their own in over a week. The union amended our proposal in the spirit of negotiation to bring the employer closer to addressing the workload issues which are impacting our members health and well-being. Despite our reasonable offer, the employer still refused to counter our proposal. OCEU/CUPE 1750 remains available to negotiate but needs to see a meaningful move by the employer to meet our members core needs. Picket lines will continue until a fair deal is reached.

Union Remains at the Table - WSIB Stalls as Strike Continues
TORONTO, June 01, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The union representing frontline workers at the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) remains fully committed to reaching a fair deal and ending the ongoing strike. Union negotiators have been at the bargaining table every day this week, prepared and available to bargain in good faith. Despite our continued presence and dedication, the WSIB refused to meet to engage in discussion yesterday (Saturday) about the issues affecting the membership. The WSIB continues to use stall tactics and delays in responding to outstanding issues in any substantial capacity while our members are on strike. On the heels of the union's repeated demands to engage in face-to-face meaningful negotiations, the WSIB has responded with silence or delay. The latest offer from the employer falls short on addressing workload and includes wages of 2.5%, 2.0% and 1.5%. WSIB employees are worth more. As our members continue to walk the picket lines and as injured workers across Ontario face increasing hardship, the WSIB's actions, or lack thereof, are deliberately prolonging this strike, with little regard for the real-world impacts on injured workers and frontline staff. Union members remain steadfast in their commitment to the membership until a fair deal is reached and this strike ends.
