Who We Are

Unifor Local 2488 is a leading union representing private-sector workers across Canada. With deep roots in our community, we are committed to advocating for the rights, dignity, and well-being of our members, who work in a diverse range of industries, including social services, manufacturing, transportation, and more.

As a local chapter of Unifor, Canada’s largest private-sector union, we fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and equitable treatment for all workers. Our strength comes from the solidarity of our members, and together, we work to create meaningful change that benefits not only our members but also the broader community.
