How long can you actually lay someone off before it becomes a termination? What if an employee asks to be laid off? And what happens if they’re already on a leave?

Layoffs can be complicated—and the rules can vary from province to province. Without a clear understanding of your obligations, a temporary layoff could potentially lead to unintended consequences, including termination or constructive dismissal.

Join Dunk & Associates on September 16 from 1:00–2:00 p.m. EDT for The Low Down on Layoffs, featuring special guest Nisha Dhanoa, Counsel with Mathews Dinsdale LLP.

Nisha brings more than 15 years of experience in private practice, in-house roles, professional regulation and advocacy. Together, we’ll explore the practical considerations employers need to understand when navigating layoffs and answer some of the common questions we hear from organizations.
