On Trans Day of Visibility (TDOV), March 31, Unifor stands firmly with trans, non-binary, two-spirited, and gender-diverse people.
The Trans Day of Visibility is a call-to-action. Recognizing human rights should not always be about defending against attacks. TDOV reminds us that we have the power to lead by example, to build a more just and equitable world now and for the next generation.
Unifor’s Workers in Transition guide is a practical resource to help Unifor locals and members support workers who are transitioning. It outlines union, member, and employer responsibilities and offers tools for building inclusive, respectful workplaces.
From washrooms and uniforms to medical benefits, workplace union representatives, bargaining committees and local leaders can help build safe workplaces that welcome and celebrate trans workers.
Trans people, and especially trans kids, continue to be targeted and persecuted by right-wing governments and politicians, but together, we can set the record straight.
These politicians and activists misrepresent the realities of trans lives and of gender-affirming care in order to confuse what is a clear and simple truth.
Trans people have always been part of our communities.
All workers, including trans workers, have the right to bodily autonomy, to be free from violence and discrimination and to live in peace.
Trans rights are workers' rights, and Unifor members will vehemently defend the rights of all workers.
Unifor recognizes the resilience, contributions, and leadership of trans, non-binary, and two-spirit members who continue to enrich our movement. Their courage and advocacy are a reminder that visibility is both a powerful act of resistance and a beacon of hope.
Review the Workers in Transition guide to see how local unions and local leadership can better support trans members at work.
