History
This branch was created in November, 1980, to assist workers who had lost their jobs due to layoffs, which was a precessing concern with the economic recession of the early 1980s. It was quite similar to a branch which had existed between 1973 and 1976 called the Employment Adjustment Services Branch. In 1983-1984, it is transferred to the jurisdiction of Labour Policy and Programs.
In 1987, the name of the branch became the Employment Adjustment Branch
