Communities Not Cuts
We are close to 80,000 workers making 444 Ontario municipalities better places to live.
The CUPE Ontario Municipal Workers committee (OMW) is a body of CUPE locals representing people who work for municipalities. We are 90,000 people who maintain roads, operate water and sewage plants, perform clerical and technical duties, install and repair traffic lights, deliver social services, maintain our parks, collect garbage and recycling, keep the streets clean and do many, many more things that make our towns and cities work.
OMW keeps a close eye on collective bargaining, pensions, legislation and other political and social justice issues. We coordinate campaigns against concessions and contracting out, and give workers a voice in protecting the municipal services we all rely on.
Get in touch with us on Facebook and Twitter (X), and you can also check out our Instagram to find out about our ongoing campaigns and initiatives. You can also use the form below to contact us directly, and we will do our best to respond to you within 24h.
