How this calculator works

For a qualifying employee, the calculator divides included wages from the 30 calendar days before the holiday by the number of days worked or wages earned. If the employee works, it adds time-and-a-half for the first 12 hours and double time after 12 hours.

What this version does not decide

  • Whether an absence before or after the holiday affects qualification
  • Averaging agreements, substitute days and special industries
  • Which payments meet the included-wages definition
  • Collective agreements with different or better terms

Where any exclusion applies, use the official source or obtain qualified advice before relying on an estimate.
