York University, like many post-secondary institutions, relies heavily on low-wage precarious labour to provide education and support students. The majority of the teaching at York is done by contract faculty, yet York does not value or protect them, as demonstrated in their continuous refusal to address job precarity and potential job loss they face every few months. Workers are making job security a key issue in this strike because we know York works because we do.
