1 PROVINCIAL/TERRITORIAL COMPASSIONATE LEAVE LEGISLATION Provinces/Territories with Compassionate Care Leave Legislation Almost all of the provinces and territories either had existing labour legislation that provided job protection for employees on compassionate care leave, or amended their labour legislation in response to amendments to the Canada Labour Code which provide job protected leave for federal employees. Only Alberta has not introduced compassionate care leave provisions. While a number of provinces amended their legislation following the introduction of the federal compassionate care initiatives (which included both an EI-benefit under the Employment Insurance Act and a job-protected leave under the Canada Labour Code), no jurisdiction requires that an employee receive or qualify for Compassionate Care Benefits in order to be entitled to compassionate care leave under provincial/territorial employment standards legislation. Rather, the provincial/territorial compassionate care leave provisions provide job-protected leave where an employee requires time off work to care for a terminally ill family member, regardless of whether the employee qualifies for the Compassionate Care Benefit. The following provinces and territories have compassionate care leave labour legislation that largely mirrors the federal labour legislation:28 Manitoba Newfoundland and Labrador Saskatchewan Nova Scotia Ontario Prince Edward Island Quebec Yukon New Brunswick Nunavut Notable Differences from Federal Compassionate Care Leave Legislation Although provincial and territorial compassionate care leave provisions largely mirror the provisions found in the Canada Labour Code, there are nonetheless some notable differences. Distinguishing elements include the definition of family member (i.e., persons for whose care an employee may take leave), eligibility requirements (i.e. required length of service and minimum notice periods) and the manner in which the leave may be taken (i.e., fractioning and/or sharing of leave).
2 (a) Eligibility requirements Eligibility requirements for compassionate care leave vary across the jurisdictions. (i) Definition of family member Under the federal Canada Labour Code employees are eligible for compassionate care leave to care for an ill family member. The Code defines family member as a: child or child of a spouse/common law spouse, wife, husband or common law partner, father or mother, father s wife or mother s husband, or the common law partner of a father or mother. Family member is defined more broadly in a number of the provincial/territorial labour statutes. For example, in addition to those family members included in the federal definition, a number of provinces and territories include: foster parents and foster children (Ontario); siblings (New Brunswick, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan, Yukon); grandparents (New Brunswick, Quebec, Yukon); grandchildren (New Brunswick, Yukon); persons who, whether or not related by blood demonstrate an intention to extend to one another the mutual affection and support normally associated with a close family relationship (New Brunswick); and step-parents, various in-laws and any relative permanently residing in the same household as the employee (Yukon). (ii) Length of service requirements In a number of provinces, an employee must have completed a minimum length of service with his/her current employer to qualify for leave. For example, an employee must have worked with his or her current employer for 30 days in Manitoba and Newfoundland/Labrador, and for three months in Quebec and Nova Scotia. In Saskatchewan, a worker not receiving the federal benefit must have been employed by his or her current employer for at least 13 weeks; however this requirement does not apply to those receiving the Compassionate Care Benefit. (iii) Medical certificate An employee must provide his/her employer with a copy of a medical certificate attesting to the family member s state of health in Manitoba and Prince Edward Island; in other jurisdictions, a copy of the medical certificate must be given only if the employer requests it in writing.
3 (iv) Notice An employee must provide advance notice of the leave to his/her employer as soon as possible in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Ontario, and at least one pay period before the start of the leave in Manitoba, although a shorter period may be given if circumstances so necessitate. In Manitoba, an employee who wishes to end his/her leave before it expires must in addition provide at least 48 hours notice to the employer. (b) Length of leave All provinces and territories with compassionate care leave legislation provide at least eight weeks of leave, to be taken within a specified 26-week period. Should the family member die before the expiry of this period, leave typically ends on the last day of the week in which the death occurs. Saskatchewan extends the maximum length of leave from the eight weeks provided in the federal legislation to 12 weeks where the individual is not receiving the federal benefit, and 16 weeks where the individual is receiving the federal benefit. Quebec extends the maximum length of leave to 12 weeks, with the notable extension to 104 weeks in cases where the employee takes leave to care for a minor. (c) Splitting compassionate leave Compassionate care leave may be split or fractioned in most jurisdictions, but most provinces/territories set a minimum leave period of one week. In Manitoba, leave cannot be divided into more than two periods of leave, totaling no more than eight weeks within the 26-week period. (d) Sharing compassionate leave Legislation in New Brunswick, Nunavut, Prince Edward Island, Ontario and Yukon stipulates that where two or more employees wish to avail themselves of compassionate care leave to provide care or support to the same person, their combined periods of leave may not exceed a total of eight weeks (including the twoweek qualifying period). In contrast, eligible employees in Manitoba and Nova Scotia are entitled to the full eight-week leave, even if other persons also take compassionate care leave in relation to the same family member. (e) Other types of employment leave Compassionate care leave is in addition to any other family-related leave to which an employee may be entitled under the applicable employment standards legislation. For example, under Ontario s Employment Standards Act, 2000, an eligible employee may take emergency leave as well as compassionate care leave with regard to the same family member.
4 Provinces/Territories without Compassionate Leave Legislation As noted above, the provinces and territories that have not amended their labour legislation to include provisions that provide job-protected compassionate care leave are: British Columbia Alberta Northwest Territories. Consultations with representatives from the provincial and territorial governments in British Columbia,30 Alberta,31 and the Northwest Territories confirmed that there are no immediate plans to amend labour legislation in those jurisdictions to provide compassionate care leave job protection. The following information summarizes the status and content of provincial and territorial labour legislation relating to compassionate care leave. British Columbia: The BC Employment Standards Act requires employers to allow employees the take unpaid compassionate care leave to provide care and support to a family member who is at risk of death within 26 weeks. There is no period of employment to qualify. Family member means 1) in relation to the employee: - an employees immediate family, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, current or former foster parent, ward or guardian - the spouse of an employee s sibling or step sibling, child or step child,grandparent, grand child, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, current or former foster child or guardian 2)in relation to the employees spouse - The spouse's parent or step parent, sibling or step sibling, child, grandparent, grand child, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, current or former foster parent or ward. 3) anyone who is considered to be like a close relative regardless of marriage or common law partnership Alberta As of August 2005, no amendments have been made to the Employment Standards Code33 (ESC). The Alberta Human Resources and Employment Department is in the process of conducting a legislative review of potential amendments to the ESC which will be tendered for public consultation in ~Dec/05-Jan/06. Government representatives
5 could not confirm that an amendment to provide compassionate care leave job protection would be part of the ESC legislative review.34 Employment Standards Code: Regulation Caregivers (page 23-27): cln= Saskatchewan Labour Standards Act35 Amended in June 2004 to enhance existing compassionate care leave provisions. The Act already provided up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave per year. to recover from personal illness/ injury, or to care for a seriously ill/injured family member. The June 2004 amendments extend full job-protection to workers while they are receiving the federal benefit. The new provisions provide up to 16-weeks leave per year. if the individual is receiving the federal compassionate care benefit; and 12 weeks for those not receiving the benefit. Workers not receiving the benefit must have been employed by their employer for at least 13 weeks (this requirement does not apply to those receiving the benefit). Labour Standards: Manitoba Employment Standards Code36 Amended in June 2003 to provide up to 8-weeks unpaid compassionate care leave. The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. However, an employee must have been employed by the same employer for at least 30 days in order to be entitled to the 8 weeks of leave.

The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. Family Medical Leave: Employment Standards: Quebec An Act Respecting Labour Standards38 Prior to the federal employment insurance legislative amendment, Quebec s An Act Respecting Labour Standards already provided up to 12 weeks per year of unpaid compassionate care leave for employees with at least 3 months of uninterrupted service. This job protection extends to caring for the employee s child, spouse, father, mother, brother, sister, grandparent or the same relatives of the employee s spouse. There is additional protection for minors suffering from a potentially mortal illness, in which case the leave of absence from work is extended to a maximum of 104 weeks. o [french] Interpretation guide: o [french]
7 New Brunswick Employment Standards Act39 Amended in December 2003 to provide up to 8 weeks unpaid compassionate care leave. The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. However, the definition of family member is considerably broader than that found in the federal labour legislation since it includes siblings, grandparents, grandchildren and persons who, whether or not related by blood, demonstrate an intention to extend to one another the mutual affection and support normally associated with a close family relationship.

The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. However, to be eligible, the employee must have been employed by his or her employer for a period of at least 3 months. Prince Edward Island Employment Standards Act41 Amended in December 2003 to provide up to 8 weeks unpaid compassionate care leave.

8 Newfoundland Labour Standards Act and Labrador Amended in December 2004 to provide up to 8 weeks of unpaid compassionate care leave. The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. However, under the Newfoundland s compassionate care provisions, an employee must have been employed by the same employer for at least 30 days in order to be entitled to up to 8 weeks leave of absence. The Director of Labour Standards (or designate) may decide that, in exceptional circumstances, an employee must be provided with up to 3 additional days of unpaid leave immediately following the end of the week in which the death of the family member occurred, and in such a case the employer is required to provide that leave. Yukon Employment Standards Act43 Amended in November 2003 (in force as of January 4, 2004) to provide up to 8 weeks of unpaid compassionate care leave. The provisions largely mirror those found in the federal labour legislation. However, the definition of family members is considerably broader than the definition found in the Canada Labour Code as it includes siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, step-parents, various in-laws and any relative permanently residing in the same household as the employee. Northwest Territories: June 2007, Employment Standards Act made the addition of mandatory compassionate unpaid leave of 8 weeks for a family member who is at risk of death within 26 weeks. May be taken at one time or in separate periods, there is no limit to the number if times an employee can take compassionate leave. Family member is defined as a spouse, child, or child of employee spouse, parent or parent of spouse, any other that the Federal Gov. feels should be included and who is included in either the Employment Insurance Act or Canada Labour Code.
