Dear Members,

The Company has advised the Union of recall for WestJet (WS) Members during the month of September 2021:

● WS recall to all three (3) bases (YYZ / YYC / YVR)
● Notices of recall and contingent notices of recall will be released by the Company later today, Tuesday August 10, 2021.
● This recall will not be expedited, meaning Members will have the full seven (7) days to respond to the recall notice as per Article 47 of the Collective Agreement.
● Failure to accept or decline a 7 day recall will end your employment.
● Members will be recalled to their base on a specific date during September 2021 to facilitate required training. The exact recall date will be base specific and will be indicated on your recall or contingent recall notice from the Company.
● Members being recalled will bid for and hold a full block award for the October 2021 block month onward.

To ACCEPT or DECLINE Recall:

1) Check the personal email account that you have most recently registered with the Company related to your inactive status. If you need to change the email address on file with the Company, please contact peopleservices@westjet.com.

2) Ensure to check your ‘spam/junk’ folder, just in case.

3) The Company will provide an official recall notice, or contingent recall notice to eligible Members’ personal email address on file. Schedules following any mandatory training in September will be assigned based on what is available.

Company Seniority List vs. Master Seniority List:
