Victoria Shipyards – Sick Days Payment


September 29, 2022

To: MoveUP Members at Victoria Shipyards


Your employer has advised that the lengthy delay in paying the five-paid sick days has been rectified. Many of you will receive a paystub with an amount for the days that you’ve missed and then the monies should be deposited shortly thereafter. The amount each of you will receive may vary as the calculation for each sick day is based on an average of your wage for the 30-days prior to you calling in sick.

To be clear, this is reimbursement for any full sick days that you took from January 1, 2022 to now. If you had to use sick time, you will be getting reimbursed for up to five days. If you haven’t used any, or only used a portion, your remaining sick day balance will be available to you should you need it for the remainder of the year and will renew on January 1, 2023.

In order to be eligible for these sick days, you must have called in sick for full days. Partial days will not be reimbursed and cannot be used towards these five days in the future.

If you have any questions or if you have called in sick and did not receive payment by October 7, 2022, please reach out to me via email at ygarie@moveuptogether.ca.

In solidarity,

Yudon Garie, Union Representative
