In the last fiscal year the LCBO returned more than $2.2 billion to the provincial treasury in the form of dividends and taxes to help pay for education, health care and public services. We don't accept that low-income workers need to take a pay cut when they work for one of the most profitable corporations in the province. People need decent work. You can't raise children on half a job. Our communities need good jobs to build strong, local economies. It's neither fair nor just that the LCBO profits from the part-time work of its employees who earn, on average, about $26,000 annually.
Fact
Part-time workers make up 60 per cent of the workforce, or about 4,000 workers across Ontario.
Fact
It takes about 12 to 15 years for a part-time worker to finally get a full-time job at the LCBO.
Fact
The average part-time worker earns $26,000 a year.
Fact

How much did you make working part-time hours last year?
My take home pay last year was just under $26,000.
Do you want a permanent full-time job?
Of course! Not having a living income lowers my standard of living. The total lack of security prevents me from planning any kind of future for myself. I think every casual knows that awful feeling you get when you see that your hours have been cut on the schedule and you know you're going to have a very difficult time making rent. No one should have that feeling.
