Hamilton Steelworkers Area Council

Hamilton Steelworkers Area Council Since the early 1940's Hamilton Steelworkers have played a key role in shaping employment laws, health and safety and WSIB legislation.

We've lobbied municipal, provincial and federal politicians to protect working people, unionized or not.

Today we celebrate working people — all of us.

To every union member, every worker, every trade, every workplace and every family that gets up every day and helps build, care for and keep Hamilton moving — this day belongs to you.

Hamilton was built by working people.
And working people are still its strength.

To every union that fights for a better life for its members and every worker who stands up for fairness and dignity:

Thank you. Stay strong. Stay united.

If you are a business or know of any businesses who offer Steelworkers a discount please let us know. This goes for any local business supporting striking workers in our area.

We'd like to make a directory so that our members can support those who support us.

What a great way to finish what has been a very busy week for so many volunteers helping us out with Operation Backpack. Today St. Matthew's House handed out 500 backpacks to the community while Excel in Style provided haircuts to many of the kids.

We were also able to give some of the backpacks to striking workers at Steel Car and Salit Steel.

Great work everyone!

School starts up for another year in just 2 weeks! Hamilton Steelworkers Area Council wants to make sure every child who needs one shows up on the first day of school with a brand new backpack filled with supplies. For some it will be the only thing new they have.

St. Matt's will receive 500 backpacks to give out, as well as 55 schools!
