CUPE Local 4627 Keeps its Official Layoff Notice Counter into '09





To keep members up to date on cuts and layoffs, CUPE Local 4627 continues to maintain its official Layoff Notice Counter into 2009. This counter is not intended
to downplay the stress and negative impact of the loss of a job - but it is meant to keep members informed and to pass along correct information as soon as possible. This counter tracks the number of layoff notices given to CUPE Local 4627 members - and may be the result of a bumping sequence. Please contact any of the Union Executives if you would like more info - or have any questions.
