Notification of Lay off The minimum amount of notice shall be twenty-eight (28) calendar days (or the minimum statutory notice, whichever is more), which may be any combination of working notice and pay in lieu of notice. Seniority shall continue to accrue for the part of the notice period during which pay in lieu of notice was provided. The Employer may assign duties other than those normally connected with the classification in question during the period of working notice, provided the work is bargaining unit work. In calculating pay in lieu of notice for casual and part-time employees, the pay in lieu of working notice shall be calculated on the basis of the average weekly hours over the preceding fifty-two (52) weeks, or since the start of employment, whichever period of time is less.
Notification of Lay off Prior to any public announcement or public discussion, the Employer, insofar as is reasonably possible, will advise the Union where lay-offs may be contemplated which will affect the bargaining unit. The Employer shall provide fourteen (14) calendar days notice to the Union prior to issuing initial notice of lay-off to affected employees. With the notification to the Union, the Employer shall provide all relevant information including but not limited to:

Notification of Lay. OFFS 22 Section 1 22
Notification of Lay. Off: When a lay-off lasting more than five (5) days is about to become effective, the Union President will be notified in writing at least five (5) days in advance, and the employees to be laid off will be notified at least four (4) days in advance or, in lieu of notice, they will receive twenty (20) hours pay. The Union President will be notified in writing of all lay-offs lasting five (5) days or less on the day the lay-off becomes effective, but before employees concerned are notified.
Notification of Lay off When lay-offs are contemplated the Employer shall notify the Union prior to notifying the affected employees. All employees affected by lay-off shall receive written notice of lay-off. The Employer shall serve notice of lay-off to the most junior employee(s) in the affected positions within the classification where it is determined the reduction is required. The initial lay-off notice, as established by the Employer, shall be the start date. Employees who are in receipt of the initial lay-off notice will receive ten (10) weeks notice. Employees subsequently bumped will receive the greater of the balance of the ten (10) weeks notice from the start date or the notice period provided by Labour Standards, but in no case will receive less than fourteen (14) calendar days notice. If the employee laid off has not had the opportunity to work the above notice period, the employee shall be paid in lieu of work for that period of the notice period for which work was not made available. However, in this notice period, if regular duties are unavailable, the Employer may assign duties other than those normally connected with the classification in question.
