  • Employees who do not work on Easter Sunday, Terry Fox Day and Boxing Day, do not have to be paid because these are not general holidays.
  • When a general holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday that an employee does not normally work, the employee must get the next regular workday off with general holiday pay.
