CLAC - Act on the Facts

Contact the SFL to arrange for an anti-CLAC presentation at your local or union.

According to this SFL document, the Christian Labour Association of Canada (CLAC) has a record of collaborating with union busting organizations - yet, CLAC is seeking to represent workers by attempting to become certified as a bonafide trade union in Saskatchewan.

What kind of agreements does CLAC sign? Here is the example on page 6 of Act on the Facts:

"When an employee works in excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week, on Sundays or on Statutory Holidays, the regular rate that employee is currently receiving will be reduced by twenty percent (20%)." - CLAC Local No. 67
