Frequently asked questions
How many weeks of vacation do I get in Quebec?
4.0% (2 weeks) from the start; 6.0% (3 weeks) after 3 years.
Do part-time employees get vacation?
Yes — vacation time and vacation pay apply to part-time and casual employees too; the pay is a percentage of wages, so it scales with hours.
Can I get paid instead of taking the time?
Vacation pay is always owed; the time itself generally must be taken, unless employment ends (then it's paid out) or your jurisdiction allows waiving with approval.
