Overtime time off granted by employee request does not entitle to overtime premium or vacation pay rules.
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the employer's cassation appeal regarding an employee's claim for overtime pay and travel allowances. The court held that time off granted upon the employee's written request in exchange for overtime hours is not a suspension of work entitled to vacation pay rates, nor does it preclude the employee from receiving their normal overtime wage. Consequently, the employee was awarded the normal overtime rate without the overtime premium, and the employer was ordered to pay the employee's legal costs.
