It's time to hold health authorities and government accountable for making sure workers in their facilities have family supporting wages and safe working conditions.

Or download a copy for individuals and organizations.
Invite Living Wage Campaign members to give a presentation to your organization or membership.
Through personal accounts of workers’ challenges and hopes, community members can hear first-hand how their support will benefit not just workers and families, but communities and health care services. To set up a presentation, please contact Priti Shah at 604-456-7012 or by email.
Write a personal letter of endorsement.
A unique endorsement letter will show workers that you stand with them in their fight. It will encourage others to endorse the campaign. And it will send a message to health authorities that many members of our communities support workers’ rights to family supporting wages and safe working conditions.
When workers earn a living wage, the whole community benefits.
Whether you’re an HEU member, a worker in another union, an anti-poverty advocate, a member of the public, part of a community, multi-cultural or faith-based organization, or active in your local neighbourhood association, your support for living wages is essential.
