How many weeks do usually companies give to their employees?
This is what they say on the website of Commission des normes du travail:
Quote:
Uninterrupted service for one employer:
Less than 1 year.......................2 weeks
1 year to 5 years......................2 weeks
5 years and more.......................3 weeks
|
This applies for non-unionized workers.
How about the unionized?
Anyway, this is just a law but how is it in reality?
How many weeks of vacation do you have?
2 weeks is not that much.
In many European countries there are laws which guarantee a minimum o 4 or 5 weeks of vacation.
In France, you even get 7 weeks (for those who are willing to work 39 hrs a week instead of 35).
I am not taking into account public holidays which are additional 5-14 days depending on a particular country in Europe or province in Canada...
