Info

For the CEO, when employed under a fixed term contract rather than a continuing employment contract, participation in LAPP is voluntary. During leaves of absence without pay, any continued contributions to LAPP will be governed by LAPP regulations. Sick Leave Employees must notify their supervisor of unexpected absences within the hour prior to when he/she is expected to be at work. The Chief Executive Officer may require the employee to provide a medical certificate for sick leave used. Permanent and term employees accrue fifteen days per year for personal illness or injury, medical appointments or for the care of immediate family members. Sick leave is pro-rated for part-time permanent and term employees. Unused sick leave may be accumulated to a total of eighty-five days. Unused sick leave will not be paid out upon termination or resignation. An employee on sick leave receives the regular rate of pay and the number of days paid are subtracted from the sick days provided. No sick leave is accrued while an employee is on Maternity, Parental, or Reservist Leave; or any other unpaid leave. Medical and Dental Appointments Employees are expected to schedule their medical and dental appointments in order to attend such appointments on their own time. When this is not possible, employees requiring time off for medical and dental appointments not exceeding three hours shall have this time off without deduction of Sick Leave. Appointments longer than three hours shall be counted as sick leave for the entire absence. The Chief Executive Officer may require the employee to provide a medical certificate for medical appointments. Extended Illness Leave Up to two weeks paid leave will be granted at the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer. A doctor’s certificate must be provided as part of the request for such leave. All accumulated Sick Leave must be used before accessing Extended Illness Leave. In order to return to work, an employee on Extended Illness Leave must provide a doctor’s note certifying their fitness to return to work. Employees are encouraged to provide two weeks notice of their return to work. Worker’s Compensation Employees must report all workplace accidents and must complete the relevant forms within twenty-four hours. Page 43 of 57
Vacation Permanent Employees Employees are only eligible to take earned vacation. Vacation cannot be taken during the probationary period. Vacation will be accrued at the following rates (pro-rated for part-time): • Fifteen days per year for each of the first five years of consecutive employment; • Twenty days per year after five years consecutive employment; • Twenty-five days per year after twelve years of consecutive employment. An employee may carry over a maximum of five accrued vacation days up to three months beyond the anniversary date of the year in which it was awarded. An employee may request special permission from the Chief Executive Officer for more than the allowed five day’s carry over beyond the fifteen month’s limit. If an employee does accrue vacation beyond the time frame noted above, the CEO may schedule and require the employee to take vacation time. At the discretion of the CEO, employees may borrow up to five days from their next year’s allotment of vacation. If the employee leaves the employment of TAL owing vacation time, the amount will be deducted from the final pay cheque. Term and Wage Employees Term and wage employees shall receive vacation pay at the rates specified in the Alberta Employment Standards Code. General Holidays The following are designated general holidays for TAL: • New Year's Day • Alberta Family Day • Good Friday • Easter Monday • Victoria Day • Canada Day • Heritage Day • Labour Day • Thanksgiving Day • Remembrance Day • Christmas Day • Boxing Day If a general holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, it is observed on the first working day of the following week. TAL will be closed for business during the three days between Christmas and New Year’s. Permanent employees are entitled to these days off with pay, provided they fall on regularly scheduled days of work for that employee. General holidays will be taken in accordance with the TAL Overtime Agreement and the Alberta Employment Standards Code. Page 44 of 57
