🚨 WE'VE OFFICIALLY FILED NOTICE TO BARGAIN 🚨
Today, the OSBCU officially filed notice to bargain with the Ford government, marking the beginning of the next round of central negotiations for education workers across Ontario.
OSBCU President Joe Tigani joined the leaders of AEFO, ETFO, OECTA, and OSSTF/FEESO at a joint press conference in Toronto to announce that Ontario's education unions are united and ready to fight for the funding, staffing, and supports that students, education workers, and school communities deserve.
Together, we represent more than 255,000 teachers and education workers across Ontario. Together, we are demanding action on the chronic underfunding and understaffing that continue to impact our schools every day.
Ontario students deserve safe, well-supported, fully resourced schools. Education workers deserve the staffing levels needed to do their jobs safely and effectively.
