Employees who refuse the EDI option and who are not appointed to a new job within six months would be placed on "unpaid surplus status" for up to one year. While on unpaid surplus status, employees will have a right to priority placement. During that time they would continue to be entitled to health, dental and life insurance and remain members of the Public Service pension plan. Also, they would be eligible to apply for unemployment insurance, subject to meeting qualifying conditions for the program. After that 12-month period, if they have not been placed, they will be laid-off. At that time, they will have access to normal severance benefits.
