Unsatisfactory Bargaining in 2020

A Disappointing Deal

In early 2020, Local 79 concluded its bargaining with the City of Toronto and entered into an unprecedented 5 year agreement. Our wages have been significantly affected by inflation over the lifespan of this agreement. 

 

Negotiated increases:

  • January 1, 2020     1.00% added to base

  • January 1, 2021     1.00% added to base

  • January 1, 2022     1.00% added to base

  • January 1, 2023     1.50% added to base

  • July 1, 2023             0.25% added to base

  • January 1, 2024     1.75% added to base

When applied to your hourly wage this means:

 

  • $20/hr in 2020 dollars is now $18/hr in purchasing power 

  • $30/hr in 2020 dollars is now $27/hr in purchasing power 

  • $40/hr in 2020 dollars is now $36/hr in purchasing power

 

You deserve more. Our team will negotiate a better collective agreement that includes the real effects of inflation on our wages.
