The plan provides pensions to members and their families and operates under the supervision and direction of a Board of Trustees representing both the union and participating employers.

You have the right to participate in a union without interference from an employer. A section of the Ontario Labour Relations Act states that no employer shall refuse to employ or continue to employ a person because the person was, or is, a member of a trade union. The Act also stipulates that the employer cannot seek to restrain an employee or a person seeking employment from becoming a member of a trade union.

Local 793 members have access to a Group Legal Benefit Plan that provides coverage for an array of services, including real estate transactions, insurance matters, wills and estates, and costs related to landlord and tenant issues. Union members who are employed by contributing employers are entitled to benefit coverage under the plan.
