Does disability leave count towards work experience for CEC?

[wander-wander-around]

Hi folks. I only see this situation mentioned few times in the forum or on the Internet in general, so just want to ask humbly here:

Does the disability leaves (including short-term disability and long-term disability) count toward the 1-year work experience when we talk about CEC?

Thanks!

No it won’t.

No it won’t.

Thanks for the quick response! So does that mean even if I am still technically employed by the employer, it won't count, is that right?

Yes, like maternity leave. You aren’t doing the job so not getting the experience.
