The CUPE Cast

Young Workers Rising!


Listen Later

This month the CUPE Cast discusses the future of our labour movement… young workers! 

Young workers have taken union organizing by storm, everywhere from Sephora, to Starbucks, to Chipotle and beyond. The CUPE Cast also discusses who is considered a young worker, what are the key issues impacting Generation Z, how young workers leverage social media sites like TikTok, and the "new" Generation Z concept of quiet quitting.
