New Brunswick Leads in Sick Leave Protections | Ottawa News

Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description

New Brunswick just became the final province to join Canada’s nationwide push for robust job protections during serious illness, now offering up to 27 weeks of unpaid sick leave — a massive leap from just five days before. This landmark law, cheered by the Canadian Cancer Society, ensures workers battling cancer or injury can focus on healing without fear of job loss or financial ruin. Inspired by Ottawa’s 2022 reforms, this coast-to-coast shift marks a major win for worker well-being and dignity.
