An indeterminate employee is declared a Surplus employee when their position is being eliminated and they are eligible for a GRJO. In such instances, the employee will be placed on Surplus Priority Status allowing them to be appointed to other positions within the public service until:

  • They accept or refuse a reasonable job offer,
  • Are laid off, or
  • Resign.

Details and consequences of job offer decisions are provided in Appendix D of the WFAD.
