What are the minimum employee entitlements in Canada?
Employees in Canada are entitled to social insurance contributions made by their employer, as well as the following benefits:
- Public holidays
- Annual paid time off
- Parental leave (usually unpaid)
Employers may offer additional benefits to their employees as they see fit. A local PEO can ensure that these benefits are compliant with local labor law and are well-documented and managed for your company.
