Rallies are planned for Monday as former IQT Solutions workers in Oshawa demand answers for why they're suddenly jobless and denied their final paycheques or vacation and severance pay.
On Friday, the American-based call centre abruptly declared bankruptcy in Canada, immediately terminating 400 full-time jobs in Oshawa, 375 full-time jobs in Laval, Que. and 100 full-time jobs in Trois-Rivieres, Que.
"It's very shabbily done," Clyde Haggart, who lost his job as Oshawa site director with the shutdown, said on Sunday.
Haggart said he got a phone call from New York at the same time he was wondering why there was no money available to pay employees on Friday. "We were supposed to have payroll in the night before."
Haggart said he's also suddenly unemployed, after moving to Oshawa in 2010 to run the centre.
"I was totally rocked," Haggart said. "I had no idea."
"Without warning, they left us flat broke, locked out, and jobless," former Oshawa worker Gregg Davis, 30, told the Toronto Star.
The full-time workers averaged about $13 an hour. They were told when they showed up for their regular shifts on Friday that the company was bankrupt and that they wouldn't receive their final paycheques, severance pay or vacation pay.
They were also told to immediately gather their personal belongings and leave the premises.
Davis said he and fellow workers plan to rally at the IQT (Integrated Quality Technologies) building on Wentworth Street East in Oshawa on Monday morning around 8 a.m. and then at the Durham Regional Labour Council on Albert St. in Oshawa at 11 a.m.

If yօu aree thinking about spending a bit more in tҺis area, it is better to avoid
the DJ and go for live wedding bands like Party Cashers or Big Wօw
Band instead. Whether you arre hɑving a wedding, party, or sometɦing else of that natuгe,
you will be able to do ѕome nline research to find the best bɑnd for hire.
On the other hand, yοu might opt for quuiet background
music from a classical guitarist like Michael Lucarelli, who will allow your guеsts to ѵisit witҺ each other
without the need for shouting.
Thanks designed for sharing such a good thinking, piece of writing is
good, thats why i have read it fully
