Listen "CUPE school support workers looking for respect"
Episode Synopsis
No one can really say what to expect if the 5,400 school support workers across Nova Scotia walk off the job in two weeks time. But it’s clear the unionized school support workers are unified in their plea for a living wage. They recently voted 97.5 percent in favour of job action if they don’t see significant movement by the employer. Chris Melanson calls himself an anomaly as someone who has worked for close to three decades as an Education Program Assistant. He’s also involved in the executive for the CUPE local who says it’s time these workers are shown the same respect that other workers are getting.
