YOU MUST APPLY TO EXTEND YOUR TEMPORARY LAY-OFFS BY AUG 25TH!
Many employers in BC might need more time before they are ready to recall employees laid off due to COVID-19. If you expect your business will have temporary layoffs longer than 24 weeks on August 30, you need to apply to the Employment Standards Branch to further extend the layoff. You must apply by Aug. 25 for the extension. Failure to apply will constitute termination of inactive employees, and you will need to pay severance. https://bit.ly/2E0Eysm
