EBSource Explains: What Exactly Is Vacation Pay in Canada and How Does It Work?  

Vacation pay and vacation time are not the same thing. An EBSource news article on average salaries in Canada clarifies a common confusion: vacation time is measured in weeks. In contrast, vacation pay is a percentage of your total gross wages — typically 4%, 6%, or 8% depending on your province and years of service. Both accrue simultaneously but are tracked differently. Even if you never take time off, you are owed all accrued vacation pay. Visit EBSource for the clear, expert-reviewed explanation every Canadian worker needs.
