Financial Relief Measures for COVID-19

By Janet Grossett, CPM, CAE, published in DIALOGUE Magazine, June 2020

Whether you are an employee, a self-employed individual or an employer, you have likely been impacted by COVID-19. At the outset of the pandemic in March 2020, a number of jurisdictions and municipalities across the country declared a state of emergency, which led to immediate layoffs and changes to operations. For that period, Statistics Canada reported the worst change in a single month, with over 1 million employees losing their jobs, raising the unemployment rate to 7.8 per cent.1 The essential role you, Canada’s payroll professionals, play became abundantly clear. You are needed to continue paying those still employed accurately and on time, and quickly issue Records of Employment to those laid off. In addition, given the numerous government measures to address the economic impact of COVID-19, you are also being asked to advise on and implement new government aid measures. Here is some information to help.

Federal Aid

The federal government introduced Canada’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan in March 2020. This plan includes measures such as the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB), the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), the Temporary 10% Wage Subsidy and more. Find detailed information on its website: https://www.canada.ca/en/departmentfinance/economic-response-plan.html.

Provincial Aid by Jurisdiction

ALBERTA

The Government of Alberta announced they will be providing support for healthcare aides to allow for: Increased healthcare aide staffing levels.
A wage top-up of an additional $2 per hour for healthcare aides.
Up to 1,000 paid student practicum positions to fast-track certification and get more staff into continuing care facilities.

In addition, $24.5 million is being advanced to operators to help address immediate cost pressures due to COVID-19. For more information: https://www.alberta.ca/coronavirusinfo-for-albertans.aspx.

BRITISH COLUMBIA

The Government of British Columbia introduced a new Emergency Benefit for Workers, which will provide a tax-free $1,000 payment to British Columbians whose ability to work has been affected by the outbreak. The benefit will be a onetime payment for British Columbians who meet the eligibility requirements for the CERB. For more information: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/home.

MANITOBA

The Government of Manitoba launched the summer student recovery plan—a new wage subsidy program to support high school and postsecondary students employed in the private and non-profit sectors. The new wage subsidy program will connect students to summer jobs that will help pay for their studies and provide the opportunity to gain valuable work experience. Under the new program, employers will have access to a $7-per-hour wage subsidy, up to a maximum of $5,000 per student. The program is open to Manitoba students aged 15 to 29, with an employment period from May 1 to September 4, 2020. Employers can be subsidized to hire up to five students. Reimbursement will be provided at the end of the employment period, upon proof of payment of student wages.

Employers must place students in jobs that can be accommodated under current public health orders and be able to adapt to recommendations provided by public health officials over the summer. For the first two weeks of the program, priority will be given to employers who do not qualify for the various federal government assistance programs.

NEW BRUNSWICK

The Government of New Brunswick, in partnership with the Canadian Red Cross, offered a one-time income benefit of $900 for workers or self-employed people residing in New Brunswick who had lost their job due to the state of emergency. The benefit helps bridge the gap between when a person lost their job or closed their business on or after March 15, 2020, to when the national benefit takes effect. The benefit application period ended on April 30, 2020. For more information: https://www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/corporate/promo/covid-19.html.

ONTARIO

To provide additional support for frontline workers fighting COVID-19, the Government of Ontario is providing a temporary pandemic pay of $4 per hour worked on top of their regular wages. In addition, the government will be providing monthly lump sum payments of $250 for four months to eligible frontline workers who work over 100 hours per month. The pandemic pay will be effective for 16 weeks, from April 24 to August 13, 2020, and is expected to support over 350,000 frontline workers. Eligible workers include staff in the following settings:

Long-term care homes
Retirement homes
Emergency shelters
Supportive housing
Social services
Congregate care settings
Corrections institutions
Youth justice facilities
Some staff in hospitals, including registered nurses and auxiliary staff

The pandemic pay is designed to support employees on the frontlines of COVID-19 and does not apply to management. For more information: https://covid-19.ontario.ca/.

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND

The Government of Prince Edward Island partnered with Sobeys on the PEI Employee Gift Card Program. This is a temporary program put in place to offer a $100 Sobeys gift value to any employee, living and working on Prince Edward Island who received an ROE as lay-off notice as a direct result of the impacts associated with COVID-19. The program was put in place to assist the employee while they await their EI payments. The application form is to be completed by the employer, who then distributes the gift card letters to affected employees.

QUEBEC

The Government of Quebec announced the establishment of an incentive program to retain essential workers, offering a $100 weekly benefit for low-income earners working full- or part-time in an essential service. The compensation seeks to ensure that full-time workers in essential sectors receive a wage that exceeds what the CERB would provide. The new benefit will be paid retroactive to March 15 for a maximum of 16 weeks. Through this compensation, workers will obtain, in addition to their wages, a taxable monthly lump sum of $400, or $1,600, for a period of 16 weeks. To be entitled to the benefit, applicants must:

Work in a sector declared essential during the period covered;
Earn a gross salary of $550 a week or less; and
Have annual employment earnings of at least $5,000 and total annual income of $28,600 or less, calculated before the benefit.

Applicants can apply for this temporary benefit, which could cover roughly 600,000 wage earners, by means of an online Revenu Québec form, available starting May 19, 2020, and will be paid by direct deposit starting on May 27, 2020.

SASKATCHEWAN

The Government of Saskatchewan announced a financial support plan for Saskatchewan employers and employees who are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan includes the following:

Self-Isolation Support Program: Administered by the Ministry of Finance, the Self-Isolation Support Program will provide $450 per week, for a maximum of two weeks or $900. It is targeted at Saskatchewan residents forced to self-isolate who are not covered by recent federally announced employment insurance programs and other supports. The program is designed to ensure that all Saskatchewan residents are covered by either a federal or provincial program to ensure no one is faced with choosing to work instead of protecting their family and community from COVID-19 by self-isolating.
Small Business Emergency Payment Program: The Saskatchewan Small Business Emergency Payment program provides financial assistance to small businesses in Saskatchewan that have been ordered to temporarily close or significantly curtail operations during the public emergency period due to a public health order to help control transmission of COVID-19. Financial assistance includes a payment that can be used for any purpose which may include assisting businesses to cover fixed costs or to reopen the business once the pandemic is over.

YUKON

The Government of Yukon has initiated a paid sick leave rebate for employers. This rebate program reimburses employers who pay their employees to take sick days and self-isolate. Eligibility:

Yukon-based businesses must also meet the following criteria:

These paid sick leave days will apply only after all existing regular paid sick leave for the employee has been used.

The rebate program cannot be split into multiple uses. Employers can only access the program once per employee. The maximum daily rebate will be $378.13 per day per employee. A doctor’s note will not be required in order to receive the rebate and the program will be in place for six months, from March 11 to September 11, 2020.

Information Sharing

The Institute does not sell, trade or rent Associate lists or personal information of Customers to third parties for their own use, unless you provide consent.

For example, at a Institute conference, you may choose to complete a request to obtain information from a particular sponsor and provide your contact details and consent for that sponsor to contact you.

As a record keeper of your Institute certifications, we may be contacted from time to time to provide verification of your accreditation. We require your consent in each case to release such information.

However, we may also release your personal information to parties outside of the Institute in certain circumstances, without your consent, as set out below.

(a) Suppliers and Corporate Partners

In order to facilitate the provision of products and services to you, we may require the assistance of third party suppliers and corporate partners and need to share your personal information with them from time to time. This would include for example third party suppliers that we engage to facilitate completion of an order (i.e. printing, shipping, etc.), hotels and other event venue providers who are hosting our conferences or symposiums, and corporate partners such as other educational institutions who are providing courses to you. Only the information that is required for that purpose will be disclosed. Such suppliers and corporate partners must follow our strict confidentiality standards to protect that information and are required to use it only for the purposes for which they have been engaged. These suppliers and corporate partners may be located in Canada or in other jurisdictions or countries which may provide for different data protection rules and may be subject to a demands or requests for information from legal or government authorities in those locations.

(b) Responding to Legal, Compliance or Regulatory Obligations

Sometimes it may be necessary for the Institute to disclose personal information of our Customers to meet legal, compliance or regulatory obligations. This would include, for example, a request by a Government official for information. In such cases, we will release only the information that is required and only after confirming that the appropriate legal authority to require such information is in place.

(c) Prevention of Illegal Acts

Information may also be disclosed by us to third parties outside of the Institute where we are of the view that it is necessary to do so in order to detect and prevent fraud, identity theft and other illegal acts. Such disclosure would be limited to what is required and subject to the third party having appropriate legal authority and providing a commitment to confidentiality and restricted use.

(d) Aggregated Non-Personal Information

We may provide third parties with aggregated, non-personal information, such as the total number of members by region. Such demographic information does not identify you personally.

Protecting Your Information

At the Institute, we take the protection of your personal information seriously. We are committed to protecting your personal information and maintaining high standards of confidentiality through the implementation of appropriate administrative, technical and operational safeguards and security measures so as to prevent any unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification of your personal information.

We have security standards and safeguards to protect our systems and your information against unauthorized access and use. Safeguards are in place to ensure that the information is not disclosed or shared more widely than is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was gathered. The Institute will protect your personal information by security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. Safeguards will vary depending on the sensitivity, format, location and storage of the personal information, but may include limiting access to personal information to representatives of the Institute on a need-to-know basis, storing personal information on computers, servers, files or sites with encryption protection and password entry, and utilizing locked filing cabinets with restricted physical access to the file storage location for physical documents containing personal information.

To ensure the integrity and privacy of the personal and credit card information you pass to us via the Internet when you make an online transaction, the Institute has implemented safeguard and security measures that are industry standard and Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant.

The server is protected by a firewall that is regularly updated when new patches and fixes are released.

We do not store credit card numbers of Customers in our electronic databases.

Our suppliers, as part of their contracts with the Institute, commit to maintain the confidentiality of your information and not use it for any unauthorized purpose.

For all disclosures, we disclose only the information that is legally required.

All employees of the Institute are familiar with the procedures that must be taken to safeguard Customer information. Protecting the confidentiality of your personal information is more than a procedure – it is part of our job.

The Institute regularly audits our procedures and security measures to ensure they are being properly administered and that they remain effective and appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

The length of time we keep your information will vary depending on the product or service and the type of information we have. We retain your information only as long as we reasonably need to for customer service, legal or reasonable business purposes. That period may extend beyond the end of your relationship with us, but only for so long as it is necessary for us to be in a position to respond to an issue that may arise at a later date, or for legal or regulatory purposes.

When your personal information is no longer required for these purposes, we have procedures in place to destroy, delete, erase or convert it to an anonymous form.

Keeping Your Information Accurate

The Institute takes reasonable efforts to ensure that any personal information in its possession is accurate, current and complete as is necessary for the purposes for which the information is to be used, as set out in this Policy. We count on you to keep your personal information current, and you should advise the Institute of any changes to your personal information as and when they occur. Keeping your information accurate and up-to-date enables us to continue to offer you the highest quality service.

If you demonstrate the inaccuracy or incompleteness of personal information, we will amend the information as required. If appropriate, we will send the amended information to third parties to whom the information has been disclosed.

Information contained in files that have been closed is not actively updated or maintained.

Accessing Your Information

You have the right to access all personal information we hold about you. For members, most of your information is available to you through your member portal.

Upon written request and authentication of identity, we will provide you with your personal information under our control, information about the ways in which that information is being used, and a description of the individuals and organizations to whom that information has been disclosed.

We may charge a fee for providing information in response to an access request and will provide an estimate of any such fee upon receiving an access to information request. We may require a deposit for all or part of the fee.

We will make the information available within 30 days or provide written notice where additional time is required to fulfil the request.

In some situations, we may not be able to provide access to certain personal information. This may be the case where, for example, disclosure would reveal personal information about another individual, the personal information is protected by solicitor/client privilege, the information was collected for the purposes of an investigation, disclosure of the information would reveal confidential commercial information that, if disclosed, could harm the competitive position of the Institute, or where we exercise our solicitor’s lien against materials in our files in respect of outstanding accounts. The Institute may also be prevented by law from providing access to certain personal information.

Where an access request is refused, we will notify you in writing, document the reasons for refusal and outline further steps available to you.

If you have questions about our personal Information practices, please reach out to us using the information in the “Contact Us” section below.
