Telus restructuring continues with more job cuts reported in March 2024

Samfiru Tumarkin LLP has learned that Telus is reportedly restructuring and laying off an unspecified number of Canadian employees as March comes to a close.

The Canadian conglomerate employs nearly 30,000 people across the country, and more than 100,000 staff globally. Last August, Telus laid off around 6,000 employees, a move it stated was necessary to remain competitive.

How does this impact Canadian employees?

If you’ve been laid off or are facing termination, here’s what you should know:

• You Are Likely Owed Severance: Employees at Telus are entitled to full severance pay under Canadian employment law.
• What Severance Includes: Severance packages can cover salary, bonuses, commissions, benefits, and more.
• Rights Don’t Change: Even in times of corporate restructuring, your rights as an employee remain protected.
