Employment Law in Cambridge

How we can help

Pelsmakher Law advises employees and employers in Cambridge regarding:

Manufacturing in Waterloo Region

Cambridge anchors much of Waterloo Region's advanced manufacturing and automotive parts sector, alongside a growing logistics and professional services base. Manufacturing employees here, as elsewhere in Ontario, are more likely than most to face a temporary layoff or a restructuring, situations that carry specific notice and documentation requirements many employers overlook.

Manufacturing layoffs and your entitlements

When a Cambridge manufacturer reduces its workforce, whether through a temporary layoff, a plant restructuring, or a termination, employees are entitled to have their individual situation assessed, separately from any group process. We help Cambridge employees confirm their entitlements, and help employers manage workforce changes in a way that reduces the risk of later disputes.
