The Local Joint Employment Committee (LJEC), made up of representatives of the CBC and the Guild, has started the process of looking for redeployment options for Guild members who have received notices of redundancy. Of the 657 affected positions across the country, approximately 200 are located in Toronto. Employees in the affected positions are receiving a notice of redundancy, being re-assigned, retiring or, in the case of contract employees, having their contract \u201cnon-renewed\u201d.<\/p>\n

The LJEC is currently dealing with over 80 members who have received redundancy notices. We are looking for other positions to place these people in, following the workforce adjustment process that is set out in article 46 of our\u00a0collective agreement<\/a>\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Because of the number of affected positions, the\u00a0Canada Labour Code<\/em>\u00a0requires the CBC to provide at least 16 weeks notice. This notice was given on April 11; therefore the earliest any layoff can occur is August 1. Between now and then the LJEC will continue to try to find placements, either permanent or temporary, for employees whose position is disappearing.<\/p>\n

Later on in the process, some employees will begin to receive layoff notices. Please note that an employee who is being laid off will receive no less than four weeks notice before their employment is terminated.<\/p>\n

We understand that these cuts are creating some uncertainty, and we\u2019re doing our best to try to minimize that. For more information, please read our\u00a0FAQ on Workforce Adjustment<\/a>\u00a0, or contact one of us.<\/p>\n

Le Comit\u00e9 mixte local de la planification d’emploi commence son travail<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Le Comit\u00e9 mixte local charg\u00e9 de la planification de l\u2019emploi (CMLPE), compos\u00e9 de repr\u00e9sentants de la Guilde et de CBC\/Radio-Canada, a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 chercher des options de red\u00e9ploiement pour les membres de la Guilde qui ont re\u00e7u un avis de poste exc\u00e9dentaire. Sur les 657 postes touch\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle du pays, environ 200 se trouvent \u00e0 Toronto. Les gens qui occupent les postes affect\u00e9s ont re\u00e7u ou recevront un avis, seront r\u00e9affect\u00e9s, prendront la retraite ou, dans le cas des employ\u00e9s contractuels, ne seront pas renouvel\u00e9s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le CMLPE traite actuellement de 80 personnes qui ont re\u00e7u un avis de poste exc\u00e9dentaire. Nous cherchons des postes dans lesquels nous pouvons placer ces employ\u00e9s, conform\u00e9ment au processus de r\u00e9am\u00e9nagement des effectifs pr\u00e9vu \u00e0 l\u2019article 46 de laconvention collective<\/a>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n

En raison du nombre \u00e9lev\u00e9 de postes affect\u00e9s, le\u00a0Code du travail<\/em>\u00a0du Canada oblige la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 donner un pr\u00e9avis d\u2019au moins 16 semaines. Ce pr\u00e9avis a \u00e9t\u00e9 donn\u00e9 le 11 avril; par cons\u00e9quent il ne peut y avoir de mise \u00e0 pied avant le 1er ao\u00fbt. D\u2019ici l\u00e0 le CMLPE continuera de tenter de trouver des possibilit\u00e9s de red\u00e9ploiement, que ce soit permanent ou temporaire, pour les employ\u00e9s qui occupent les postes exc\u00e9dentaires.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plus tard dans le processus, certains employ\u00e9s recevront un avis de mise \u00e0 pied. Dans ce cas, l\u2019employ\u00e9 recevra au moins quatre semaines de pr\u00e9avis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nous savons tr\u00e8s bien que les gens se sentent d\u00e9stabilis\u00e9s en ce moment, et nous faisons notre possible pour att\u00e9nuer le malaise. Pour plus de renseignements, consultez notre\u00a0FAQ sur le R\u00e9am\u00e9nagement<\/a>\u00a0des effectifs, ou communiquez avec nous.<\/span><\/p>\n
