Share

More than 200 workers at OLG Ajax Downs in Ontario have voted with a resounding 67 per cent in favour of joining Unifor.

The vote took place on Monday June 1st after a campaign led by a dedicated team of workers within the gaming facility.

The union’s new members are the latest in the gaming sector to equip themselves with the power of a union to navigate the sector’s current uncertain situation.

With the OLG constantly pushing its modernization plan, workers opted to join the union to have a real collective voice.

Now that they voted in favour of being Unifor members, workers at OLG Ajax Downs will start negotiating a collective agreement that will improve workplace rules and conditions. They join more than 8,000 gaming workers already represented by Unifor across the country.
