Ontario's Union for fairness, equality and respect at work.

Loblaw Agrees to phase out use of BPA/BPS receipt by end of 2021

After our sustained campaign to eliminate toxic receipt papers, UFCW Canada Local 1006A is proud to welcome Loblaw’s newly announced commitment to stop using receipts with Bisphenol A (BPA), Bisphenol S (BPS) and other bisphenol papers by the end of 2021.

UFCW 1006A members at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Mississauga-Toronto Southwest on North Sheridan Way have voted to ratify a three-year union contract with gains.

Fear. Uncertainty. Loneliness. These are among the wide range of emotions Canadians are grappling with, especially those working in essential roles on the frontlines.

Local 1006A is joining in support of UFCW Canada locals calling on the Government of Ontario to ensure frontline workers have priority access to the COVID-19 vaccine.

As a 1006A steward, Carmelo Lamanna thrives on making a difference. 

“Being a steward means looking out for my co-workers,” said Hazel. “It is about standing up for what is right."
