OPSEU releases online video
By Adnews Staff
The Ontario Public Service Employees Union has released an online video called “Written in the Scars” intended to raise awareness of education workers who have experienced violence in schools. Acccording to the video, the issue stems from understaffing, unsafe working conditions and underfunding.
“Every day we are experiencing violent incidents and classroom evacuations for the safety of other students and education workers,” said Sandra Cadeau, OPSEU/SEFPO boards of education sector chair. “Our system has normalized what is happening instead of dealing with the real issue. We need more education workers, more training, and more supports for programs to ensure the safety and success of all our students and staff.”
