Targeted Labour Adjustment. (a) Employer Commitments It is agreed that the institution will make every reasonable attempt to minimize the impact of funding shortfalls and reductions on the work force. It is incumbent upon the Employer to communicate effectively with its employees and the Union as soon as the impact of any funding reduction or shortfall or profile change has been assessed. The canvassing of options and/or labour adjustment strategies under this Article 7.12 shall occur following the issuance of layoff notice under Article 7.09. If a work force reduction is necessary, the Joint Labour Management Committee will canvas employees in a targeted area or other areas over a fourteen (14) day period, or such longer time as the Joint Labour Management Committee agrees, to find volunteer solutions that provide as many viable options as possible and minimize potential layoffs. The Joint Labour Management Committee may agree to extend the period of a canvas. The Union shall be provided with a copy of each final plan for employee labour adjustment.
