Correctional Service Canada (CSC) Layoffs 2026 — 302 Jobs Cut in Canada

Correctional Service Canada is eliminating 419 positions (406 employees and 13 executives) as part of the federal government's Comprehensive Expenditure Review (Budget 2025). This total includes vacant positions, projected attrition, and positions to be eliminated through formal workforce adjustment. Of these, 302 currently filled positions (295 employees and 7 executives) are undergoing formal Workforce Adjustment (WFA) or Career Transition (CT) proceedings — the most direct indicator of employees facing displacement. 620 "affected" or "at-risk" status letters have been issued (611 to employees, 9 to executives). These notices indicate potential impact and do not necessarily result in departure from the public service. The organization employs 18,902 people in the core public administration as of March 2025. Notifications were issued in Phase 2 of the Government of Canada's workforce reduction process.
