After speaking with an employment lawyer, the PPL layoff severance is, in his opinion, the most cowardly and offensive severance in his long career in oil & gas. Offering minimum Canadian law standards to professionals in a time of zero ability to obtain future employment speaks volumes to their lack of commitment to taking proper care of the people that work(ed) there. Maybe they should have started with executive salary cuts like all the other companies have?
These severances are unjust and deserve to be contested. If you agree, please post here!
