Good morning. A strike at Canada Post is serving as a flashpoint for new challenges facing both workers and employers. The cost of living is high, and now we have to worry about robots coming for our jobs? I’d feel more at ease about it if they promise to pay taxes. More on the economic forces driving angst at the workplace below, but first:It’s consumer price index day in Canada and the euro zone.
Taken together, a new picture is emerging of an economy finding its footing after the height of the pandemic. Employers are navigating the effects of inflation, heavy debt, labour shortages, geopolitical upheaval and now the likelihood of strict tariffs on imports into the U.S.by new technology.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has been vocal about its resistance to Canada Post’s plans to hand over tasks to machines, pointing to technologies in use at itsfor letter carriers” that represent a threat to jobs. At the docks in British Columbia, the Longshore and Warehouse Union Ship & Dock Foremenas the BC Maritime Employers Association planned “technological change implementation,” including automated machines used to load and unload cargo containers.
“The world is changing very, very quickly. Workplaces are changing very, very quickly. There’s an uptick of artificial intelligence, of automation. And so, people are feeling vulnerable.” But now, “there’s a strong sense that Canadians are not being provided reassurance from companies and policymakers that what happened through the pandemic was fair.”
