Please come out and support contract food and cleaning service workers if you’re on the hill today. Please share with colleagues who may be interested.
Despite repeated promises made by the administration, none of these workers is making a living wage. The university needs to do the right think and bring this work in-house.
There will be a rally after the screening.

You are all invited to meet with and share lunch with the Hon. Katrina Chen at SFU Burnaby to talk about how to insource contract work at SFU and win!
Remarks by the Hon. Katrina Chen
Screening of the short film Limpiadores [Cleaners]
Tues, November 14 at 2 pm in ASB 9896
Free Pizza (starting at 1:45)
We must hold SFU accountable for its living wage promises and fight back for better working conditions - that means SFU becoming the direct employer of food service and cleaning workers. They won this fight at SOAS in London, and we can win here, too. We will watch a short documentary together Limpiadores [Cleaners] that tells the story of how they won.
All workers on campus should have the same rights and benefits, so invite friends and allies. Feel free to drop in and out as your work schedule allows!
