Sector profiles provide a detailed overview of key industry statistics, union data and policy challenges for the 25 sectors where Unifor members work, along with a general overview of the Canadian economy.
Unifor’s Sector Profiles are designed to equip local unions and union representatives with crucial information about the industries that shape our work, including:
- Unifor’s presence in the sector along with broader union density and representation;
- Recent economic and employment trends, including trade and tariff impacts;
- Recommendations to develop the sector while protecting good union jobs.
Building awareness of these dynamics and policy recommendations is critical for effective bargaining and worker advocacy. It empowers Unifor members and strengthens collective bargaining power.
The more informed we are about our industries, the better we can fight for fair wages, job
security, and improved working conditions across Canada.
