    IBEW 993 Frequently Asked Questions

    Layoff

     

    What do I do when I’m laid off?

    It’s important to inform Chandra via telephone (no messages), in person, or by using the online form (no emails) whenever you are out of work so those days aren’t counted as days worked. You must contact Chandra and not the main office staff.

    We cannot put you back on the list via telephone message or an email. You MUST use one of the two methods:

    1. Telephone – 778-470-5514
    2. Online Form – https://ibew993.org/end-work/

    Even if you do not want to go right back to work, you should should still call in to Chandra. If you’re not available for work, just let the dispatch office know and we’ll mark you as not available.

    When I get laid off, do I go to the bottom of the list?

    Typically no. Your position on the unemployed list is determined by the number of days that you’ve worked in the current year.

    It’s important to inform Chandra via the online form or by telephone (no messages) whenever you are out of work so those days aren’t counted as days worked.

    I took a one month call, it’s been more than that already, I want to get laid off and the company says no, can you get me a layoff?

    No, we cannot force the company to lay you off. All job calls will be considered indefinite in duration unless an exact completion date is specified.
