How Our Union Works
PSAC
The Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) is one of Canada's largest unions, representing over 200,000 workers in the federal public sector and some private sector industries. Established in 1966, PSAC negotiates collective agreements, advocates for fair wages and benefits, and safeguards workplace rights and conditions. Through political lobbying and grassroots activism, PSAC works to influence public policy that impacts its members and the broader Canadian workforce. Joining PSAC means becoming part of a powerful organization committed to defending workers' rights and promoting social justice across Canada.

Your Local - 621
The local component of a union is your direct link to support and representation in the workplace. It handles grievances and disputes to ensure members' rights are protected. Local components also provide essential services like workshops and training to enhance members' skills. Engaging in community outreach and political activism, they advocate for workers' rights and support broader union initiatives. By fostering solidarity and member engagement, local components empower you to have a voice in your workplace and beyond. Our local represents workers in Cornwall, SD&G, and Hawkesbury.
