ATU Local 113 Work Car Operator from Wilson Yard Tests Positive for COVID-19

Sisters and Brothers,

We received unfortunate news today that an ATU Local 113 member, a work car operator in subway track and maintenance, has tested positive for the coronavirus (COVID-19). The member works out of Wilson Yard and was temporarily working at Dundas West Station.

The member’s last shift was on Tuesday, October 27 from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

I spoke to the member who is recovering at home. On behalf of all ATU Local 113 members, we wish them a quick and full recovery.

This case marks the 108^th ATU Local 113 member who has tested positive for COVID-19. A total of 128 employees at the TTC have tested positive for COVID-19.

Please practice physical distancing as much as possible before, during and after your shifts – and stay home if you feel unwell. If you have been tested and are awaiting your results, please stay home and self-isolate.

In Solidarity,

Carlos Santos
President, ATU Local 113
