Rights & Benefits: Leaves

VCCFA's Collective Agreement, Article 8 and provisions of the Common Agreement, Article 7-Leaves and Article 8-Parental Leaves in the grey section, provides for an array of leaves and sets out the terms and conditions around them. Among others they include provisions for an adjudicated amount of education leave and a Supplemental Employment Benefit for Maternity and Parental Leave.

Our Collective Agreement also includes Retirement Preparation Leave (8.11) and Renewal Leave (8.12) which provide significant stipends while on leave which allow one to continue health coverage and pension contributions.
