Easter weekend
Hi there,
This is my first Easter weekend working, and I'm confused!
We get Friday off, then some people seem to be taking Monday off. Is Monday a holiday day, like an English bank holiday, as personnel aren''t here to ask!
Thx

Re: Easter weekend
Federal government employees get Monday off, some Provincial and civic employees might.

Re: Easter weekend
Easter Monday is not a statutory holiday in Alberta, although some employers will be shutting down the office for the day. Other half works for province and they take a day off at any opportunity. Me on the other hand working for a municipality has to go to work 
I bet he will be on that bl**dy Playstation all day

Re: Easter weekend
So what are these statutory 'sick days' people here seem to use when they want an extra day off?
Some friends of ours use them even if they are not sick, as if they don't use them up up by the end of the year they'll lose them??
