Happy International Workers Day!

UA Local 170 celebrates our members and all workers across Canada and around the globe. Workers make the world go 'round!

[UALocal170 @UALocal170]

Death on the job should not happen. Every worker deserves to return home safely at the end of the day.

Last year, 138 workers died on the job or from diseases related to work. That is too high and should be zero.

We must all re-commit ourselves to the safest possible worksites.

Please join your local Day of Mourning event tomorrow.

A big thank you to all UA 170 members who took the time to fight back against Bill M233.

The bill, which was an attack on BC jobs, was defeated last night in the legislature.

Your signatures and your letters to politicians made a difference.
As always, we are stronger together!

BC workers should build BC projects. Our UA Local 170 members deserve a fair shot at major infrastructure projects!
