Re: Return to Office 3 days a week. Can a manager force an employee to "make up" a sick day or vacation day by forcing him to work in the office another day as a replacement day? Or doesn't a sick day or vacation day count as a day off and therefore counts as a day in office regardless of Return to Office policy, under the law and statutes in Ontario?

Hello,

There are no laws regarding working from home or the office and these matters are left to employers to decide in consultation with their staff. Staff are generally required to follow lawful orders from their employers and this would be one such order that you would be required to follow unless you and your employer can come to a different agreement.
