Huh, would you look at that, I stand corrected. I could have sworn I looked it up last year and it said otherwise. Maybe I was looking at a Federal list & not a provincial one. Good to know though.Originally posted by Hallowed_point

Our office is open on Remembrance Day. Our company's birthday actually falls on November 11. However, we take an extra day off in lieu during Christmas holidays.

Day off thankfully!

Info for those that work for a provincially regulated company in Alberta - link. Only 9 official stats in Alberta - if you're getting anything more, then it's due to the generosity of your employer. That said, does everyone know whether or not the company they're working for is provincially or federally regulated with regards to labour related issues?
Will fuck off, again.

What I think sucks, is that in Alberta...if the stat falls on your regular day off (ie: Sunday in this case) you are not entitled to a day off with pay. So this year you don't get one, but next year you WOULD. Seems stupid.Originally posted by speedog

Other provinces don't make that distinction. In BC, for example, you get a day off with pay, no matter what day the stat falls on.

Technically that's the RULE but I think a lot of employers still pay overtime (if you're working) or give a day in lieu or just close the next day (like us).Originally posted by C_Dave45

Alberta is so desperate for workers, yet they have the worst labor laws in Canada.

So becuase a stat falls on your regular day off, you want another day off with pay?

I'm working today but I get the full 11 days off over Christmas break in lieu. For anyone getting Christmas eve off this year, it works out really well for maximizing time off.

Those unfulfilled people who try to fill the void in their empty lives by writing whiny letters to the editor complaining about shit that no one really cares about?
Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

At work!
Honestly, I don't think anyone from my company took a day off. We all get a day-in-lieu, however, so that's something :P
Work is at about 1/2 normal call/ticket volume, anyways. Nice relaxing Monday
