Looking for one final Halloween scare? Look no further than Nail Fix in the 6ix! 🎃🦇

The case of Nail Fix in the 6ix shows us how the Minister of Labour lets employers get away with very scary behaviour. Workers began filing complaints in 2025. First for unpaid wages, and then unpaid training, illegal deductions, and misclassification. As of today, none of the NINE outstanding payment orders has been paid. Over 12 nail technicians are collectively owed over $70,000 in stolen wages!

Support these workers by calling Nail Fix in the 6ix (416) 438-6888 and telling them to pay their wages.

You know what’s scary? Nail Fix in the 6ix has received 9 orders to pay workers their stolen wages.

What’s even scarier? The Minister of Labour did not fully investigate the company despite workers’ complaints.

What makes US scream? The business still operates even though the workers have received none of what they are owed.

WAGE THEFT SCARES US ALL!

Nail Fix in the 6ix shows how the Minister of Labour lets employers get away with wage theft.

By not meaningfully punishing employers who commit wage theft, and by not protecting workers who speak out against it, the Ford Government is giving employers a green light to continue stealing our wages.

What’s giving us the biggest scare this Halloween? WAGE THEFT! 🕷️👻

No one should go to work and not get paid for it. Yet, the Ontario Minister of Labour, Trevor Jones, continues to let this happen. Between 2023-2024, 97% of bosses in Ontario investigated for wage theft faced no consequences. Just 3% of bosses investigated were penalized!

By not doing his job, the Minister of Labour has forced Workers’ Action Centre members to take matters into their own hands and become Bad-Boss-Busters!

☎️ If you’re experiencing wage theft, call the Workers’ Action Centre at (416) 531-0778 and become a Bad-Boss-Buster today.

You know what’s scary? Bosses who won’t pay your wages or tips.

What’s even scarier? Finding out that the Minister of Labour lets 90% of bosses with wage theft violations go unpunished.

What makes US scream? Learning that only $1 for every $5 stolen from workers is collected by the Minister of Finance.

Who ya gonna call? If you’re experiencing wage theft, call the Workers’ Action Centre and become a: BAD-BOSS-BUSTER
