Hi there,
My situation is a bit tricky here, please help.
I came to Canada under IEC and it's only available for one year in my country.
I will have 11.5 month full time experience (in office environment, M-F 9-5, 37.5 hours a week) when my IEC expires in April.
To be exact, I will have 11 calendar days/ 7 working days less than the required 12-month full time experience.
I have not taken any vacation during this period, I understand that when I leave the company, the vacation pay accumulated will be given.
I wonder if the vacation pay can be counted as part of the working period? (I'm in BC)
Can I request my employer to indicate on the employment letter that I have worked from May xx 2013 to April xx 2014, and from April xx to May xx 2014 I am on vacation pay, so that it shows a full 12-month working?
Thank you so much.
