Webinar: Navigating the Economic Impact of Tariffs on the Workplace
12:00 pm - 12:30 pm
About Event
The imposition and announcement of tariffs on Canadian goods have caused economic upheaval and concern for many Canadians. Employers who have been or expect to be financially impacted by tariffs may be unsure about how to address the workforce changes that may be required as a result. It is important for employers to understand their options and their obligations as they guide their businesses through these uncertain times.
Join Veronica Blanco Sanchez in an informative seminar regarding options that may be available to employers if the economic impact of tariffs will require workforce changes, and legal obligations related to such changes. The discussion will cover topics including the following:
· Are there government measures that will provide impacted employers with assistance?
· What can I do short of laying off or terminating employees?
· What do I do if I have to lay employees off?
· What do I do if I have to terminate employees?
