Vacations and General Holidays
General holidays are sometimes referred to as statutory holidays or stat holidays. They are days recognized by legislation as holidays. Employees either have this day off with pay, or, if they work, are paid differently.
Remembrance Day gives the people of Manitoba the opportunity to pay tribute to the memory of those who have died, cherish those who have suffered injury, and recognize those who dedicate themselves to the protection of freedom and human dignity.
Employees who have worked for the same employer for a full year are entitled to two weeks of paid vacation. When employees complete their fifth year of work with an employer, they are entitled to three weeks vacation.
