Reports suggesting the Ford government plans to cut the number of holidays for retail workers.
The Toronto Star, quoting Unifor officials, who say the province plans to introduce legislation this summer for a two year trial change to the Retail Business Holidays Act.
One of the changes would see the number of mandatory statutory holidays for retail workers cut from nine to three.
Union leaders were given the news Wednesday during a technical briefing with the province.
Unifor President Jerry Dias says the only three stats would be Christmas, Good Friday and Canada Day.
Dias says “I can’t think of a dumber decision at a worse time.”
