HR Guidelines for Unit Restructuring

At UBC, we want to ensure a transparent and clear approach for leaders to follow when considering a unit restructuring that impacts staff. 

These guidelines are an important part of the change management process and are designed to ensure that operational changes are managed effectively and aligned with UBC best practices, legal, and contractual obligations. 

By utilizing the guidelines, leaders can make informed decisions about unit restructuring driven by factors such as budget reductions, reduced workload, streamlining of work efforts, technological changes, and new operational processes.
