Postal workers strike part of wider struggle against precarious work

Redeye

Members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers have been on strike since November 15. CUPW represents more than 60,000 Canada Post delivery workers in rural and urban areas across the country. At the heart of the strike is an effort to secure safe working conditions for all postal workers, and a wider struggle against precarious work, as companies drive workers to the gig economy. We speak with Adam D.K. King of the Labour Studies Program at the University of Manitoba.
