The Canadian Union of Public Employees is claiming a victory for casual workers around the Province. A court of Queens Bench judge has ruled the Provincial Public Service Relation Act contradicts the Charter of Rights. Cupe says casual employee's have been working in the public sector for years with no rights, earn less and have no benefits.
The judge is giving the province one year to remedy this situation. Cupe began this court fight back in September of 2005 to obtain these rights for casual workers.
