Description:

This Quick Reference provides a useful overview and new insight for employers and employees who have to deal with the somewhat unfamiliar terrain of public pensions and employment insurance, especially where those programs directly intersect with employment situations.

The Guide details the history and development of the Canada Pension Plan, how it is administered, and specific information about the types of benefits available as well as the manner and timing of benefit payments.

In this newly updated edition, the authors have tried to reflect a more developed view about the state of public pension plans in light of rapid changes to the economy and investment strategies.

This edition also includes several new chapters designed to assist employers and employees in understanding the Employment Insurance Act: Employment Insurance benefits, EI adjudicative process, Record of Employment (ROE), structuring settlements and damages, federal work-sharing program, the future of Employment Insurance.
The 2009 edition also addresses changes to the legislation since the first edition, including: Bill C-36, which received Royal Assent in May, 2007; a discussion of pension eligibility in the face of progressive, or cyclical, disability; comments on structuring settlements and damages to employees; a review of the federal work-sharing program, which is newly prominent given the current economic difficulties; and a look at what may lay ahead for Employment Insurance.
