I am one of over 700 clerical staff members at William Osler Health Systems who are struggling daily due to the rising cost of living and our current unfair pay. Our wages have not kept pace with inflation, making it increasingly difficult for us to meet our basic needs. This is not just about money; it's about dignity, respect, and fairness in the workplace.

Bill 124 was enacted with the intention of managing compensation costs within Ontario's public sector. However, its implementation has left many of us in a precarious financial situation. We are asking that all clerical staff at William Osler Health Systems receive fair retroactive pay immediately.

According to Statistics Canada, inflation rates have been steadily increasing over the past few years (source: Statistics Canada). Yet our salaries have remained stagnant under Bill 124. This discrepancy has resulted in a real decrease in our purchasing power and overall standard of living.

We believe that everyone deserves fair compensation for their work and that no one should struggle to make ends meet because their salary does not keep up with the cost of living. We urge you to support us by signing this petition demanding immediate payout of fair retroactive pay for all clerical staff at William Osler Health Systems under Bill 124.
