Congé de paternité - CNT

Capsule the paternity leave. The law on labor standards include provisions for paternity leave to protect the majority of Québec workers, whether full time or part time. The employee is entitled to a leave without pay from 5 consecutive weeks on the occasion of the birth of her child. Parental leave can be added to paternity leave, without exception. The Québec Parental Insurance Plan allows payment of income support benefits of an employee who misses work because he is a new father. At the end of paternity leave, the employer must reinstate the employee in his former position and give him the salary and benefits that would have been entitled had he remained at work.
