Le travail hybride, ça marche ! Mettons fin à la politique malavisée de Doug Ford sur le retour au bureau.

Les travailleuses et travailleurs  de Santé à domicile Ontario ont reçu l’ordre de retourner au bureau à temps plein à compter du 5 janvier 2026. Malgré une réduction de l’espace de bureau depuis 2020, Doug Ford impose sa politique malavisée, mettant en péril les soins et la confiance des patient(e)s.

Les travailleuses et travailleurs de Santé à domicile Ontario sont passés à un modèle de travail hybride bien avant la fermeture due à la pandémie de la COVID-19, et cela a bien fonctionné. Les bénéficiares de soins à domiciles et leurs proches aidant(e)s  peuvent compter sur des appels calmes et tranquilles avec leurs coordonnateurs et coordinatrices de soins et leur équipe de soins à domicile pour les aider à traverser certaines des périodes les plus difficiles de leur vie. Ce personnel  seradésormais plutôt soumisau bruit de fond d’un bureau fort occupé où  il a pas assez d’espace pour l’accommoder.

Pire encore, la mise en œuvre du retour au bureau a été inégale en Ontario. Certain(e)s travailleuses et travailleurs doivent se conformer pleinement à cette mesure, tandis que d’autres se font dire qu’ils(elles) ne pourront pas retourner au bureau. Cette application inégale a des répercussions sur le moral des travailleuses et travailleurs, qui se sentent méprisé(e)s et stigmatisé(e)s.

Le 5 janvier, les membres du SCFP de Santé à domicile Ontario organiseront des rassemblements à  l’heure du dîner, devant leurs lieux de travail à la grandeur de la province afin de protester contre cette décision gouvernementale malavisée.

Hybrid works! Stop Doug Ford’s short-sighted Return to Office Policy

Workers at Ontario Health atHome have been ordered back to the office full time as of January 5th, 2026. Despite a reduction in office space since 2020, Doug Ford is ramming through his poorly thought-out policy, risking patient care and trust.

Workers at Ontario Health atHome were moved to a hybrid work model before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down, and it has been working. Patients and their caretakers can rely on a calm, quite call with their care coordinators and home care team to help guide them through some of the most difficult times in their lives. Instead, they will be subject to the background noise of a busy office where workers don’t have enough space to work.

Worse still, the implantation of the return to office has been unequal across Ontario, with some workers expected to comply fully, while others are being told they will not be able to return. This uneven application is causing impacts on morale, with workers feeling disrespected and singled out.

CUPE members at Ontario Health atHome will be holding lunch-time rallies outside their workplaces all across the province on January 5th to protest this short-sighted government order.

Add Your Voice: Stop the creeping privatization in Healthcare

Healthcare is under attack. Conservative and Liberal governments are undermining our public healthcare system and opening the door to the private delivery of healthcare—weakening and undermining our healthcare system. The latest example is seen through the cancellation of hybrid work models to force workers to Return to the Office, which only benefits private real estate developers not workers or the communities we serve. Add your name to keep our healthcare public!

Conservative and Liberal provincial governments across Canada have systematically undermined our public healthcare system for years. Consecutive governments over the past decade have undermined the public delivery of healthcare services.

Restructuring, changing working conditions, and licensing out of public care to private providers threatens high-quality care for patients and threatens job security. But CUPE members are fighting back!

Add your name to the petition to stop the creep today!

Government reviewing office space in light of Return to Office order

CUPE’s member organizer Brett Geneau spoke with media about the Ford Government’s short-sighted return to office order.
Brett Geneau, with the Canadian Union of Public Employees, said the review would find the government needed more space.
“The real estate is not there, they have closed offices, they’ve sold off some of the real estate that they owned, they’ve stopped some of their leasing contracts,” he said.
“We can barely support the three days a week with our staff now.”
Thanks to the advocacy of CUPE members like you, the Ford government is now beginning a review of office space limitations across the Ontario public sector given its new return to office policy. We will continue to demand the government rethink their return to office policy at Ontario Health atHome and consult with CUPE members at Ontario Health atHome on this issue.
