UFCW Canada supports its Migrant Worker Members

UFCW Canada is proud to be the union defending Canada's migrant workers. For decades, we have been leading the fight to ensure that migrant workers have the same opportunities and rights as every worker in Canada. The industries we represent involve a growing number of migrant workers as Canada's labour force changes, and UFCW Canada is here to advocate for every one of our migrant members.

Build Your Life in Canada

If you are a UFCW member in Canada on a Temporary Foreign Worker permit, your union can help you build your life in Canada with your family.

UFCW representatives are here to help you navigate through the permanent residency process, and help you find the pathway that is right for you.

Workers in the agricultural and food industries can obtain permanent residency through several routes, whether it is through one of the many Provincial Nominee Programs or the Quebec food worker pilot program. Your union can help your find a pathway to permanent residency that fits your experience.

English as a Second Language

UFCW Canada is here to help members achieve the language skills that are crucial to achieving permanent residency in Canada. Our union offers language support to our members in both of Canada’s official languages.

Know Your Rights

As a member of UFCW, you belong to one of the strongest unions in Canada. You are protected at work by your collective agreements. If you have any issues, reach out to your local union.

You can subscribe to UFCW Canada’s weekly newsletter for information.

For our migrant members, we have many courses available to help them know their rights in Canadian workplaces.
