By contrast, a person hired under a contract of employment, whether on a permanent or fixed-term basis, is eligible to join HOOPP because they are an employee of your organization.
Distributing the The HOOPP Handbook
At the time of hire, or when a new employer joins HOOPP, you are required to provide each of your employees with a hard copy of the member information booklet The HOOPP Handbook. This booklet must be given to all new employees who are eligible to become a HOOPP member within 30 days of hire, even those part-time (and other non full-time) employees who choose not to join the Plan. Providing the handbook to all new employees who have the option of joining HOOPP is an important part of your responsibilities as a participating employer and is required by law. The handbook provides key information about HOOPP, including a member’s rights and obligations, and enables part-time and other non-full-time employees to make an informed decision about whether to join the Plan. In addition to the booklet, HOOPP also provides other communications and resources that further explain and promote the value of being a HOOPP member.
