Hi 🐠! Quick question - If a job in Canada offers 5 months of full paid parental leave, what exactly does that mean given in Canada you’re allowed to take upto 18 months of parental leave? Would appreciate someone explaining the breakdown to me from a salary and time off perspective!

It would mean you only get EI for any time after 5 months.

Typically EI covers you for a year at the maximum insurable amount and dependent on your salary. Your employer will have insurance which tops it up to a 100% for a defined time period.

Suppose your salary is 75k per Annum and EI covers upto 63k per annum( check the limit). Then your insurer through employer will top it up for 5 months. Beyond the initial 5 months you get EI and that’s the only amount you receive. You may choose to receive EI for 18 months , instead of 12. But it’s the same amount as 1 year, just spread out over 18 months. This is my understanding , haven’t availed yet, please verify.

Thank you both!

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster. I’ve barely taken any days off this year and pick up “skeleton crew” days any chance I get. I was able to work out a deal with my company before I came because of prior experience luckily, but they offer a terrible base salary and sham of a commission structure to new hires + no remote. Then sit here and can’t figure out why…
