Information on New Sick Benefit

The Federal Government recently announced “paid sick days” for workers who are ill or must quarantine/isolate due to COVID.

While this is a great benefit, it is quite limited:

1. It is available from September 27, 2020 until September 25, 2021
2. It is provided in two (2), one-week periods.
3. Each week must be separately applied for, within 60 days.
4. You can only receive 2 weeks of support. No further claims will be allowed.
