Great victory, Great news 110 security workers (Logix Security) at the Air Canada Cargo joined the IAM union family at the Pearson Airport. Despite management bully tactics We got the certification from the Labour Board late last week.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Big thanks go to Kushang Shah who was the lead person on this campaign,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Sam Jabbar, GLR Responsible for Organising. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153His determination, hard-work and organizing skills got us this group unionised. Jabbar coordinated the campaign.<\/p>\n
Shah, a Shop Steward with IAM Local 2323 working at Air Canada Cargo, helped with the campaign despite some difficult conditions \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the work was performed in secure areas and spread out in the cargo building at various locations and times. The workers tried to join for the past five years, but with little success.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153With the help of Kushang Shah, we were able to overcome the hurdles and successfully signed the group. We were constantly in touch through our text messages and kept them informed about the benefits of belonging to the IAM. The management tried many tactics to scare the workers off from joining the union. This campaign shows that hard works always pays off.,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d concluded Jabbar.<\/p>\n
