      Quick facts

    • The Coalition Against Workplace Violence is comprised of the NSGEU, NSTU, NSNU, and CUPE.

    • These four unions have joined forces to lobby for legislated protection against violence for workers - drafted over ten years ago, but never enacted.

    • The Coalition has launched a public awareness campaign that includes: an e-mail petition, workplace posters, province-wide radio and newspaper ads, and a news conference at the provincial Legislature

      • Produced by CAWV, the Coalition Against Workplace Violence with financial assistance from the Nova Scotia Federation of Labour
