Mississauga Walmart Workers Approve First-Ever Union Contract in North America
In Mississauga, Canada, 800 Walmart warehouse workers voted overwhelmingly to approve their first collective bargaining agreement with Unifor Local 252. The two-year deal includes wage increases up to $5 per hour in year one, a 3% rise in year two, a “me too” clause for all warehouse workers, job security protections, and reparations for unfair labor practices linked to denial of wage increases.
