Hastings Entertainment Inc. – COVID19 – Update # 1
March 24, 2020
To: All MoveUP Members at Hastings Entertainment Inc.
Providing an update on the actions your Union is taking to support our members in the gaming industry.
MoveUP is pressuring your Employers to continue to cover benefits for all eligible employees during this pandemic. We are also pressuring your Employer to provide top up for all of you on Employment Insurance due to the temporary closure.
We have been in contact with the BC government to explore possible means to bridge your income from employment to EI benefits.
We will continue to keep you informed as we learn more information.
MoveUP has created a COVID 19 resource page on our website. The page has excellent information covering as much as we know to date and how to apply for and receive the various benefits being offered by both levels of government. https://moveuptogether.ca/resources/flattenthecurve/
In Solidarity,

Union Representative
