Covid-19 Closure Notice

COVID-19/Operations UPDATE – March 17th, 2020
To our Bogart's Family,

After significant discussion and consideration, we have made the difficult decision that Bogart's Bar & Restaurant will be closing all operations for a minimum period of two weeks. This is effective today, March 17th, 2020 through March 31st, 2020.
It is our hope that we can reopen after this temporary closure, however we must be mindful that the economic conditions during these unprecedented times remain uncertain.

With that said, we will be issuing Records of Employment (ROE) citing temporary layoffs for all hourly employees of Bogart's. We feel that it is in the best interest of all of our hourly people to begin taking advantage of employment insurance (EI) benefits as soon as possible. Please note the federal government has waived the normal waiting period for acceptance of benefits. The EI Benefit is 55% of your average weekly earnings. To help assist in this transition, Bogart's will be topping up the EI Benefit portion of 45% of your average earning for the first week (March 16-22). You will see this additional pay on the next payroll issued Friday, March 27.

The process by which we need to administer the ROEs, will begin immediately. However because of the backlog of EI application requests and ROE requests through PUSH (our payroll administrator) there will be some delay in receiving your ROE. It is expected it could take up to one week for your ROE to be issued electronically, for when you apply for EI benefits.
Once your ROE is issued (in up to one week’s time), it will automatically be populated into your online EI application. We are doing everything we can to expedite this process. More information about how to apply for EI can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/ei.html

We understand that this is difficult for everyone but want to assure everyone that this is only a TEMPORARY layoff and expect to have all of you back when it is viable and safe to do so.

For any staff with personal belongings on premise or outstanding gratuities, please contact Melissa to arrange to pick them up.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions or concerns.
Thank you
Raffaele
