College part-time support staff strike vote

College Part-Time Support Staff vote “YES” and deliver strike mandate

October 19, 2025

The results are in! This week, college part-time support staff in Ontario took a massive step forward in holding its first ever strike vote, and 64% voted “YES”! 

The following is from OPSEU/SEFPO:

Today, part-time college support staff have sent a strong message to our employer who has dragged out negotiations for almost two years: we need a fair deal now. 

We know that the employer’s latest proposal doesn’t go nearly far enough: proposing no wage increases for all of 2024, and possibly 2025 is insulting.

We’re fighting for better for all part-timers – including students and casual staff – and to win a collective agreement that ensures dignity in the workplace for everyone.
