After continued pressure from the AHLA, the Minister of Labour has extended the deadline for temporary layoffs to June 30, 2021. This will allow members to maintain employment relationships with their staff and delay potentially devastating termination costs.
This is another huge win for AHLA members, made possible because hotels worked together through the AHLA to find a solution that meets the needs of employers and employees.
The AHLA encourages properties that benefited from this extension to contact Minister Copping at labour.minister@gov.ab.ca to thank him for his support during this challenging time.
