Where will they protest or picket when they currently work from home (?) and how many days/week would they do it? 5 days per week for 3 hours/day and claim it’s 40hrs/week? From their own driveways?
Unions representing tens of thousands of federal workers warn they are planning a “summer of discontent” to force the federal government to back off plans to compel workers to come to their offices for a minimum three days a week.
The four unions say they were angry when the new hybrid work rules were
announced last week, but have since started to mobilize and fight. They are asking the government to keep the status quo, with workers coming to the office for a minimum of two days a week.
They told a press conference in Ottawa Wednesday that they will fight the new rules through legal actions, as well as through a tide of grievances from workers, but did not offer details. They promised more measures will be announced later.
Nathan Prier, president of the Canadian Association of Professional Employees, told the news conference that Ottawa is asking workers to spend more time in federal workplaces that are a mess.
“Nobody can find a desk. Nobody has a locker. We’re talking about offices that aren’t safer or cleaner than they were before telework. Bedbugs. Bats. Mice. Cockroaches. Mould. Odours. Poor air quality. Missing or broken equipment. Trash littering workstations. These aren’t conditions fit for federal employees,” he said???
Jesus…what did they do before the Wuhan Flu???
