LAYOFFS & RECALLS. (a) Whenever layoffs in a seniority group are necessary, the Company shall first lay off:
(i) temporary employees;
(ii) probationary employees; and
(iii) part-time employees; if any, in that seniority group before laying off regular employees, provided there remains enough employees to fulfil the normal requirements of the job.

In cases of layoffs of regular employees for a period of more than five (5) working days, the Company shall endeavour to provide as much advance notice of layoff as possible, but in any case not less notice than required under The Employment Standards or wages in lieu thereof at regular rates, provided however, that no notice of layoff need be given where the operation is shut down due to an act of God, labour activities preventing the Company from processing or delivering is products or any other collective labour action over which the Company has no control.
