Be advised that the CLH has taken a position to deny employees severance if they have worked since the pandemic layoff regardless of the number of weeks they have been laid off in the past 52 weeks.  Your Union has filed a grievance and are not in agreement with the employer.  If you have been considering taking your severance you may wish to do it now.  While your Union is confident that we are on solid grounds defending our members severance rights  the outcome of our grievance is not guaranteed to be successful.  We will continue to keep our members at the CLH updated on this very urgent matter.
