MRCO POLITICAL ACTION

We work on things that matter to all our members and contractors who employ them:

• Labour laws that serve worker and honest employers including fair wages, worker safety, taxation, pension’s reform, workers’ compensation, employment insurance, and health and welfare programs.

• Initiatives that support and promote excellence in training, secure retirement and universal access to healthcare.

• Government programs, policies and initiatives that promote and grow the middle class.

• Campaigns against the underground economy, which exploits workers through substandard wage rates and no employment insurance and workers’ compensation benefits.

• Legislative measure that threatens our members and our union such as the recently repealed Bill C-377.

• Infrastructure funding that creates decent jobs, stimulates the economy and grows the middle class.

• Promotion of responsible energy developments.
