Paid sick days must be universal, sufficient and permanent News provided by Share this article Share this article TORONTO, April 21, 2021 /CNW/ - The province's scramble to introduce paid sick days must meet the needs of workers with permanent, adequate and universal paid leave says Canada's largest private sector union. "Ontario workers are watching and we will not be fooled if Premier Doug Ford or his ministers try to pull a fast one in today's announcement by not delivering adequate time off, or by making the benefit temporary. This crisis made some realities clear, including the undeniable truth that paid sick days save lives," said Jerry Dias, Unifor National President.
