We are a federally legislated company operating across Western Canada, we have an operation in SK where we need to do a short term layoff with a call back date under 3 months. As per federal legislation I do not believe that notice has to be given for the short term layoff, but in the past we have used SK provincial legislation regarding the notice period which varies with the employees tenure. What are our legal obligations regarding the notice period relative to the short term layoff described above?
