Members of CUPE 2745, the Education Support Staff in New Brunswick, began a five-day hunger strike on Monday, May 24 to bring attention to the lack of fairness and respect they receive from their employer.

Our membership includes Teacher Assistants, School Secretaries/Clerical, Library Assistants, District Office clerical support staff, School Intervention Workers and Student/Bus Attendants.
