Parks Canada: New workforce adjustment resources and union guidance

Parks Canada has released new educational resources related to its workforce adjustment (WFA), including updated information on the workforce selection and retention exercise — formerly referred to as the selection of employees for retention and layoff (SERLO) process. These resources provide insight into how positions may be assessed and how decisions could be made as workforce changes are implemented. 

At a time when many members are facing uncertainty, it is important to familiarize yourself with both employer materials and union resources to ensure you fully understand your rights and available protections. 

PSAC’s workforce adjustment resources remain essential to support informed decision-making and ensure you fully understand your rights and protections.

While employer resources outline the process from the employer’s perspective, our WFA Guide ensures you are aware of all protections negotiated on your behalf and the different options available to you. 

Visit the WFA landing page for PSAC members at Parks Canada for other helpful resources, including an affected checklist, frequently asked questions, process flowchart, and more. 

Facing workforce adjustment can be one of the most challenging experiences in your career. Staying informed and seeking advice early can help protect your rights. 

If you have questions or need assistance, contact your local union representative, PSAC regional office, or your component— the Union of National Employees or Union of Canadian Transportation Employees
