The teachers, current- ly involved in contract taîka which stalied Sep- tember 28, believe that "the selective use of these reatraints doea nothing to alleviate 'or attack the.proïblem." The teache rs point out that wage increases in the education sector in Ontario have lagged behind private, sector increases-every quarter.ý, since 1978.. They also dlaim that wage controls proposed by the Ontario govern- ment descriminate against the public sec- tor, and against women. "Progresa la .juat beginning for women in the work force who are attempting to catch up with the salaries being paid to men for work of ,equai value," a Federa- tion of Women Teach- er's bulletin states. "Blanket wage con- trols couid bring this advancement to- an abrupt hait. Controls simply freeze the gap between -men and women." The Federation states that in 1979, the average woman in the work for- ce earned only 63 per cent of the average maIe fuil-time salary. The .,speciflc- com- is the proposed Bill. 127, which - would impose joint bargaining on teachers and achool boards in Metropolitan Toronto., The Federation clainis that BiI 127 would seriously intrude on what they say has been succesaful collect- ive bargaining between achool boards and teachers in the past. "Most achool boards and their respective teacher affiliates have demonstrated a capacity for responsi- bility to' their consti- tuents," the Durham teachers state. The Federation of Women Teachers dlaim that Bill 127 will cause a decline in the quality of educaiton in Toronto, and possibly the reat of Ontario, because al major' -education decisions'will -be madàe by trustees appointed to the Metropolitan School Board. "Right now you make decisions about, your children's education through your eiected trustees," the Feder- ation says. It dlaims the appointment of trustees wiIl compromise the achool boards' ability to meet children's needa.
