Where s B C s sick leave plan? Premier promises more details in the days ahead

VANCOUVER More than a year after the B.C. government began trumpeting the importance of paid sick leave to keep people from bringing COVID-19 into the workplace, officials have yet to implement a provincial policy supporting workers. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Premier John Horgan said his administration is still planning to introduce a program to address gaps in the federal government s Canada Sickness Recovery Benefit, and that more details would be shared in the days ahead. Work was done through the summer to bring forward a provincial plan and we re taking those off the shelf and looking at how we can implement that in a seamless way, without putting more burden on business at a time when business can least afford it, Horgan said.

Horgan Says Action on Paid Sick Leave Coming in Days Ahead

His criticisms included that the amount offered is less than the minimum wage in B.C. for someone working full-time hours, and that there’s too long a lag between when a worker stays home from work and when they can expect to be paid through the program. In Ontario, Premier Doug Ford’s government had offered to contribute to the federal program so that benefits to workers in his province could be doubled, but the federal government rejected the offer, saying its program is intended as a stopgap while provinces move to mandate their own paid sick leave. Horgan said in B.C. his government’s focus has been on establishing a national paid sick leave program and he still believes that would be the best solution, but it’s become clear the federal government doesn’t intend to improve the CRSB.
