Unpaid Leaves: Your Legal Rights in Quebec

Published 2 days, 5 hours ago
Description

Quebec workers often overlook job-protected leaves, despite labor standards act provisions for personal and family events. These leaves, some paid, cover marriage, new babies, caregiving, deaths, and jury duty. New parents get five days around a birth or adoption, first two paid. Caregivers can take up to ten days a year, first two paid after three months. Miscarriages or abortions trigger weeks off, and partner losses give five days with pay for the first two. Deaths of spouses, kids, or parents offer five days, two paid. Jury or court calls require employers to release workers, no pay required unless union rules say so. Notice your employer ahead for these rights that level the field when chaos hits home.
