Seaforth workers
benefit from .
Program for
Older Worker
Adjustment
Workers laid off from Genesco.Canada
Inc. in Seaforth will be one of the first
group of Ontarians who may be eligible
for help under a Program for Older
Worker Adjustment (POWA), announced
by federal Labour Minister Jean Corbeil
and Ontario Labour Minister Gerry
Phillips.
POWA will provide income support to
up to 600 laid -off workers age 55 to 64
who have exhausted their unemployment
insurance benefits and who have no
realistic" prospects for re-employment.
The Seaforth company was one of 15 in
Ontario who will be the first to benefit
from the program. Labour Minister
Gerry Phillips announced we will con
tinue to examine other layoffs to deter-
mine if they fit the program criteria.
The Canada -Ontario POWA agreement
calls for Ottawa to fund 70 per cent of
POWA costs and Ontario the remaining
'30 per cent. Workers whose employment
has been ended by layoffs that are
designated as "major permanent layoffs"
leading to "severe hardship" for a
"substantial number of older workers"
may be eligible for POWA assistance.
Designations are determined layoff -by -
layoff. Once a layoff has been designated,
the eligibility of individual workers is
determined.
POWA benefits provide financial
assistance to older workers who have ex-
hausted
xhausted unemployment insurance benefits
but who are not yet eligible for the old
age pension. Permanently laid -off
workers who qualify for POWA will
receive an amount equal to 70 per cent
of their unemployment insurance benefits
at the time of the layoff. Workers can
claim a maximum Of 31,165 per month in
1990. POWA benefits are taxable,
Older workers eligible for POWA
benefits will be located using a number
of sources, including company reoofrt
and Canada Employment and Immigra-
tion files.
