The staff at the UTSU will be in strike position later this month in response to the employer demanding concessions on work-life balance and refusing a fair wage increase.

@cupescfp.bsky.social Alberta education workers across the province are on strike, demanding better for their students and themselves. It's time for the Alberta government to take education seriously and fund it at the level students, education workers and communities deserve.

Great interview with CUPE Alberta president @rorygillab.bsky.social about the incredible strike action that is happening in the education sector across the province.
Many education workers haven't seen a pay increase in 5 years—for some it has been as long as 10.
