Tomorrow: CAW Auto Parts Workers 15,000 Strong Demonstrate Across Ontario

CHATHAM, ON, Oct. 26 /CNW/ - CAW members in the auto parts sector will be demonstrating outside their respective workplaces tomorrow Wednesday, October 27 for a province-wide Day of Action. In more than 100 workplaces across Ontario, workers will be staging rallies, calling for an end to the downward pressure on working conditions and employer demands for severe contract give-backs.

This is the first time such a large-scale effort has been orchestrated by Canada's auto parts workers. The Day of Action also includes a massive outreach effort to non-unionized auto parts workers, including those employed by Magna.

In Ridgetown, outside of Chatham, workers will be demonstrating at the Martinrea plant, rallying for an end to employer demands for concessions at the bargaining table.
