Fairness and respect are the cornerstones of a healthy workplace and we will work closely with our members to ensure an improved work environment, said Debbie Oldfield, CUPE organizing representative. Our Aramark members will now have the backing of Canada’s largest union with a legitimate process to address workplace issues.
