On July 5, Premier Doug Ford informally announced that the pandemic pay for personal support workers (PSWs) scheduled to end in August will be made permanent. Despite this statement, the government has made no official proposal or announcement on a permanent wage increase.
Please note that the 2024 Unifor National Scholarship application period is open!
Unifor recognizes that the cost associated with post-secondary education is a challenge for many working families. To assist in making education more accessible, we have established 28 scholarships of $2,000.00 each to children of Unifor members and a Unifor member entering their first year of post-secondary studies. Five of these scholarships are administered by the Quebec Council with a separate application form (see www.uniforquebec.org). Residents of Quebec must apply using that application process.
More information about this popular program including details on how to apply can be found here.
THE APPLICATION PERIOD CLOSES ON FRIDAY JUNE 14, 2024.
