General Services


There are over 20,000 CAW members currently working in what we call the "general services" sector. This number captures those who work in various service occupations not covered in our other defined services sectors (such as transportation, hospitality, health care or universities and colleges). This "catch-all" service category encompasses a great variety of firms and occupations. One large group is our sector-wide agreement representing around 1800 mechanics and other workers in garages and auto dealerships in the Montreal area. There are also significant numbers of CAW members in the long-distance phone industry; building maintenance and security services; several electric utilities; and Green Shield (which provides non-profit benefit administration for CAW members in auto and several other sectors).
