Add Comment Question: Our org pays less than competitors for same US role & contract. New leave policy denies lieu day for Canadian holidays if US holiday is within 90 days. My lieu day request was rejected citing low productivity, despite average performance. I seek guidance on this policy. Answer: Thank you for your question. Public holidays and vacation entitlements are governed in Ontario by the Employment Standards Act.
