Many PSAC collective agreements have protections against job cuts in the federal public service. Employers must ensure that employees are treated equitably and given every opportunity to continue their careers. Your collective agreements outline your rights and options when you are an indeterminate employee facing a workforce adjusment situation. 

The Harper government has announced another round of strategic and operating reviews.  This time each department is being asked to prepare 5- and 10-per-cent budget cut scenarios. 

With your help, PSAC will be making every effort to fight back against these cuts to jobs and services.

But you must also know your rights if your job is in jeopardy.  Each collective agreement has different job-security provisions so make sure you check the agreement that applies to you.  In the meantime, here are some general information.
