Welcome

Welcome to the Canadian Labour Congress’s website on adjustment.

You are here because:

  • you are facing an adjustment situation;
  • want to understand workplace adjustment better;
  • or are preparing in case your workplace faces an adjustment situation in the future.

This website has been designed with local union leaders in mind but individual workers and union activists at other levels may also find it useful. It is based on the experience and knowledge of your union brothers and sisters.

This website is not intended to be a substitute for the guidance and assistance that you receive from representatives of your union's regional and national offices or from central labour bodies. It is also not a substitute for knowing your own workplace and trusting your own instincts. It is a supplement to both of these and should be treated as just one source of information to help you with the challenge you face. We hope you will find it a useful one.

This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.

You can make a difference

Suddenly you get word that management proposes to give pink slips to some of your members, or perhaps they already have and someone has come to you to ask what to do. It is important that you act fast and effectively.
